North Carolina Artists Take Out Full Page Ad Trolling Pat McCrory on His Birthday [View all]
A coalition of artists have taken out a full page ad in Raleigh’s News & Observer trolling Governor Pat McCrory with a birthday message that attacks him for supporting HB 2.
As we have extensively reported, that anti-LGBT law banned all local nondiscrimination ordinances in the tar heel state and prohibits transgender people from using bathrooms that correspond to their gender identity.
The ad reads, “HB2 U, Pat,” invoking a playful take on the name of the bill that has drawn so much ire from human rights advocates across the country and around the world.
Underneath that message is a picture of a rainbow-colored piece of cake.
The ad continues, “Governor McCrory, we send you best wishes today. But the real celebration will begin Nov. 8 when North Carolina votes to move in a more progressive direction.”
