Last week, I opined on the bathroom battles brewing between the U.S. Department of Justice and North Carolina. I predicted these battles have just begun and will spread like wildfire around our nation. Barely a week later, the issue is being widely discussed and hotly debated, in the mainstream media, on Main Street, and all over social media.As I was sorting out my thoughts on this follow-up essay, my Infantry OCS classmate and good friend retired Army Col. Rudy Baker sent me a message on the matter from his fellow North Carolinian and State Sen. Wesley Meredith.According to Meredith, “The facts regarding HB2 have been contorted to frame North Carolina as a discriminatory state.”
