Nowhere is that more true than in Durham. To be sure, there is similar difference in Charlotte, where the city councils assertive stand for LGBT rights spooked the General Assembly into its hasty and ill advised passage of HB2. And there are other pockets such as Asheville. But in much of the state, support remained strong for the bill and the solid conservative majorities in many legislative districts feeling secure even as HB2 probably was responsible for former Gov. Pat McCrorys narrow defeat in November. Its worth reflecting two aspects of the states modern culture almost certainly had as much to do with HB 2s repeal as the moral rectitude of opponents that marched, rallied, spoke out and organized. Would that that moral rectitude alone could have carried the day. It was necessary but not sufficient. One of those aspects infuses the state from the mountains to the coast -- sports, especially major-college basketball. PST.s received Your order is picked, packed and sent out Your ord
