Gastonia, NC – It seems that a small rural county in North Carolina is gaining opposition to a proposed ordinance to require hundreds of dollars and fees and the personal information of any organizer in the county that calls for a protest. Gaston County Sheriff Alan Cloninger worked with the Gaston County attorney Jonathan Sink to draft the ordinance and slip it in minutes before a scheduled county commissioner’s meeting. Protest were called at the last minute by the founder of the Gaston County Freedom Fighters to assemble at the courthouse to oppose the proposed “Pay To Protest” ordinance.
