North Carolina Congressman Calls Bruce Springsteen a 'Bully' Post-Concert Cancellation

FUSE TV - North Carolina Congressman Calls Bruce Springsteen a 'Bully' Post-Concert Cancellation

The fact that an elected official in North Carolina criticized Bruce Springsteen for canceling an upcoming performance in Greensboro is one thing. The fact that he worked a "Born to Run" pun in there is enough to spike an eyebrow, but that doesn't change the fact that the Boss won't be playing in the Tar Heel State anytime soon.

On April 8, Springsteen said that he couldn't move forward with his upcoming N.C. performance, citing House Bill 2 — the law that prevents transgender people from using restrooms and other facilities that don't align with the gender noted on their birth certificate — as his reason for skipping the show. 

From Springsteen's statement: "HB2 — known officially as the Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act — dictates which bathrooms transgender people are permitted to use. Just as important, the law also attacks the rights of LGBT citizens to sue when their human rights are violated in the workplace. No other group of North Carolinians faces such a burden. To my mind, it's an attempt by people who cannot stand the progress our country has made in recognizing the human rights of all of our citizens to overturn that progress. Right now, there are many groups, businesses, and individuals in North Carolina working to oppose and overcome these negative developments. Taking all of this into account, I feel that this is a time for me and the band to show solidarity for those freedom fighters."
