A town council in North Carolina rejected plans to rezone land for a solar farm after residents voiced fears it would cause cancer, stop plants from growing and suck up all the energy from the sun.

:bravo: idiots.

I know "this is what's wrong with America" gets thrown around a lot, but this is literally what's wrong with America.

They didn't reject it because of that one crazy lady's opinion. That's just the most sensational part of the story the media's been able to find.

Good. I hope this prompts the rest of the nation to shame their poo poo town.

gently caress you dilweed, even one quack talking about solar panels stealing the sun means your town is an idiot town

Agreed with the caveat that if that person is booed and shamed out of the town hall by the rest of the constituents then the town is redeemed.
