SUED! (by the, um, GIRL SCOUTS)
I believe our Jewish brothers and sisters have an expression for things like this: Oy vey!
We’ve heard a lot about Mark Robinson and Yolanda Hill‘s financial troubles through the years: the bankruptcy proceedings, an eviction, the failure of the daycare center, and the latest hubbub over Balanced Nutrition, among others.
I tell ya — it was hard to believe my eyes when I came across THIS. Yolanda Hill was sued in 2003 in Guilford County Small Claims Court for MONEY OWED. And who did she owe money to? According to court documents, it was none other than The Tar Heel Triad Council of The Girl Scouts. (If The Girl Scouts are lawyering up on you, life is not going very well.)
Life was not going well for Mark & Yolanda in 2003. They were coming out of bankruptcy proceedings in 1998 and 1999. Further bankruptcy proceedings were gearing up in 2003. The couple was also struggling to launch a daycare center in Greensboro.
According to court documents, The Girl Scouts were in possession of a returned check written by Yolanda D. Hill for the amount of $2,956.03. On October 27, 2003, a Guilford County magistrate ruled in favor of The Girl Scouts — awarding them the face value of the returned check, a $25 processing fee plus a $5 bank service fee, plus $500 treble damages.
That comes to a grand total of $3,486.03.
(It appears the court also assessed Hill $60 in court costs and $443.40 in attorney’s fees.)
You may ask yourself: What was Yolanda attempting to purchase from the Scouts for the amount of $2,956.03?
The Girl Scouts’ legendary cookies were priced at about $3.50 per box in 2003. You could buy one hell of a load of cookies for $2,956.03.
Thank you once again. I believe we get the message even if we are thick-headed.
For the record, I believe you have successfully defeated Robinson and elected Stein.
AND, IF WRAL doesn’t have this piece, they will now.
You accuse The Daily Haymaker of sinking Robinson’s ability to win the election due to pointing our Robinson’s disturbing record and actions yet you make similar accusations against Tim Moore and Phil Berger on this very site.
Inquiring Minds want to know if you belive that your criticisms of Berger and Moore have sunk our chances of getting a super majority in General Assembly or is your accusation only applicable to The Daily Haymaker?
If it doesn’t, it should. NO WAY should Berger or Moore have super-majority. I certainly don’t want any more power for them. For they have used the power to help Coop much more than conservatism. Very much like McCrory who has been placed out to pasture.
My point is, Robinson is Robinson. Not my first choice but won’t make ME VOTE Stein…..
And I won’t be pulling any levers for any person in the Berger or Moore camps.
I’ve grown tired of seeing the Robinson errors. He’s done, I get it.
BUT you can believe, IF you want, you can find similar activities, actions and shenanigans against Stein, Moore, Berger. We act as if Coop was an angel. Yet, he walked carefree and untouched and unchallenged for 4Y.
And much of that agenda was supported part and parcel by Moore, Berger, et als.
Folwell, Causey. Only two reps I support.
We in the know(because of your reporting)saw this coming & knew the Democrats & the media were waiting until after the primary and Robinson was the nominee. I wish he would withdrawal and since Folwell is under an ethics investigation Graham is the obvious choice to replace Robinson at this late date. It won’t happen & Robinson will lose by at 6 points & could cost Trump North Carolina.
Graham was Shumaker’s candidate, and that is a huge disqualification. He was the worst of the three. The fact that the farmers despise him over some of his lawsuits against farmers meant he was unelectable anyway, I might hold my nose for Robinson in spite of his warts, but I will NEVER do that for a Shumaker candidate, and I am not even a farmer!
In a presidential election year, Republican turnout will be high, and we will still lose the governor’s office. Candidates matter, one great speech should not be your only qualification to run for governor. His record as Lt. Governor is underwhelming.
Robinson’s record in life is underwhelming.
If so how come Everbody Knows His Name more people than Stien for sure. By walking about the State of NC Robinson brought to the open the fact that our school libraries were carrying books on “How To” engage in same sex activities. He stood up to the MSM. He spent evenings a community meetings around the state to find what is needed in NC. What has Stien done over and above a 9-5 job with others doing the leg work to resolve our failing WOKE Schools, drugs, loss of industry for communities to thrive. Who hasn’t tried ventures that didn’t work out, owed money in arrears. The Clinton, Bush, Obama years were economic disasters for many of us. Read his book WE ARE THE MAJORITY! It tells a lot that none of us would have the courage to put in ink. We don’t need NC to be pushed into the BLUE WOKE SOCIALIST NIGHTMARE.
Hear, hear. Totally agree!!!
By moderation do you mean censorship? New to all this scrutiny in expressing your opinion.
My vote IS for Mark Robinson BECAUSE he had the courage to address the LIES about gender that the radicalized left is fomenting in our schools/universities/politics and courthouses. He is a FEARLESS CULTURE WARRIOR and folks– that’s where the war is at the moment. Even our Church pulpits are SILENT or HAVE FALLEN to the Devil’s LIES on gay sex and transgenderism, BUT for a very few ‘FAITHFUL to scripture’ EXCEPTIONS. I would have gladly voted for Dale Falwell EXCEPT he didn’t have the courage to address what is destroying our children with outright moral depravity. Mark Robinson did. He’s not perfect, but he has more courage than most to go against the red tide of communism sweeping our schools, courts and politics. God Help Us All to at least vote for someone who loves the Lord and seeks to OBEY HIM!

I’ll join you in line as well. Well said.
Courage? He refused to stand up for Constitutional Carry when Phil sleaze-Berger killed it in the Senate this year, and gun rights is supposed to be Robinson’s core issue. He also refused to stand up against Berger and Cooper’s Green New Deal, HB951, that will send our electric rates into the stratosphere, and on that one he was briefed by a group of experts on the issue but refused to take a stand. Robinson refused to stand up against the Obamacare Medicaid expansion, and refused to take a stand against the casino bill until AFTER Berger threw in the towel. With his record of refusing to get involved on key issues, I do not trust him any farther than I can throw him on policy. Robinson has been MIA time after time after time.
That said, it is better to have a wishy-washy dolt as governor than a far out socialist like Josh (Franken)Stein, so I will likely hold my nose for Robinson. We could have done a lot better for a nominee. but you have to go to battle with the troops you have, not the ones you wish you had.
There were better candidates for Lt gov but no one would pay any attention. Now we are stuck w a candidate that has zero chance of winning and zero qualifications to hold the office. Candidates matter!!
