I was born and raised in Greensboro, but you couldn't pay me enough money to live anywhere in Guilford county now. My wife and I both work in Greensboro now, but we live in a neighboring small town in a different county.
So - I have completely enjoyed working from home these past few months! I refuse to spend any money in Greensboro when I have to return to working in the office. I'll bring my lunch everyday.
If you are where I assume you are, I'm there, too. Shit ever hits the fan, PD/City Hall is absolutely the place to be for the front-footed. Absolutely.
And if you're not where I assume you are, carry on, friend.
Though I'm not a DAR member (Daughters of the Revolutionary War), my ancestor was among the Regulators at the Battle of Guilford County Courthouse. I've heard it said this battle led up to the Revolutionary War.
There were definitely many patriots in Guilford County. My family was among the first to settle in NC, beginning in the late 17th century. Durham is named after a family member, as is Winston-Salem. They were among the first to settle in western NC in Buncombe Cty. Some of them are buried on the grounds of what became Biltmore. It is a shame to see what is happening to NC. The people need to rise up and take it back. NC is one of the most beautiful states in the union, and we cannot cede it to the leftist trash.
During vacation 1996 I made across-country trip to visit distant cousins in Guilford and Alamance counties. (Their ancestor being brother to mine, both Revolutionary War soldiers.) So I can vouch for what you said, that NC is one of the most beautiful states in the Union.
edit: BTW, when I was visiting these cousins, they took me sight-seeing at Black Mountain in Buncombe County. So I know that area, too.
And what's really sad about how anti-American it's become today: one of my grandmother's distant cousins, J W Albright, was publisher of Greensboro's newspaper that ran from 1869-1944.
Its name? The Greensboro Patriot.
That's where Greensboro's allegiance was back in those days.
You have no idea the amount of trash from NY and NJ that's moving here. I just sold my house in Raleigh to one. I don't get it, they flood from one city to the next like locusts, leaving one ruined husk after another.
I'm in small town USA, NC aka Fayetteville. If it wasn't for all of the retired military folks here, this place would be just as bad. We have this one bitch that is on a major intersection every week with a "Fuck Trump" sign. It's disgusting.
this. the people fleeing from up north are moving here and turning this state into the same place they just left. we have a whole community on the coast that's called little jersey because of how many new jersey transplants live there.
Even more than the politics it's just the rudeness and "Fuck You for trying" attitude that comes with them. We lived in a small community for almost 10 years before we really started seeing a huge influx of these people and we never had problems. There is just zero sense of civic duty or community with these jackals. Our house sat at a stop sign on a sleepy little road off of a cul de sac, and without fail, these asshats would just blow through that stop sign at 20 mph over the speed limit like they just had some kind of special pass. I went Garp on one after we tried everything to get her to slow the hell down and damned if she didn't sick the HOA on me. Garbage humans.
Chapel Hill is basically Durham. Greensboro and Asheville are the next shit holes to be.

A friend of mine used to work at Biltmore, used to help with the horses.

Don't let the idiots take it. Fight back dude.

Greensboro holds a special place in my heart. (For now) but, I'm afraid it is beyond the point of no return.
