"State of emergency declared in North Carolina," the WECT News 6 headline informs us. "Governor Bev Perdue has declared a State of Emergency for North Carolina in anticipation of Hurricane Earl's arrival." From blogger John Jacob H:
"Upon Governor Beverly Perdues declaration of a State Of Emergency on September 1, 2010 Dove Hunters, Concealed Carry Handgun Licensees, Target Shooters and all other gunowners cannot possess, transport or use firearms off their personal property as per N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-288.7"
Here's what the statute says...
But time's up for North Carolina gun owners. They can either obey the law, and go defenseless if they have to leave their homes, or just say the hell with stupid, evil anti-defense edicts and take their chances they won't be caught and punished--providing they survive their encounter with the "authorities".
Government, of course, as usual, has things exactly Bizarro-World backwards. It's when the security of a free state is imperiled that the right of the people to keep and bear arms is most necessary.
What an outrageous choice to force a supposedly free human being to make. Especially when we've seen what can happen when unarmed people are caught trying to get to safety by the "only ones" who can "legally" bear arms in an emergency.
As I asked when commenting on that atrocity:
"If you were trying to get to safety with your loved ones and had to make your way through a no man's land populated by looting predators and worse, would you go defenseless?"
Well, would you? Even if you lived in North Carolina?...
I am in NC and I am defying this ban. I will not permit anyone to try to stop me.
that makes a lot of sense. I don’t have firearms for emergencies. I have them for when I don’t need them /s. Good thing I’m getting to old to listen to what assholes tell me to do anyhow.
Although I could see are dumbass Gobner....try it.
The last lie I recall, a few days ago, was she didn’t know those 42 flights
she took on private planes during her campaign were reportable.
Hey, yeah. Lets make North Carolina safe for Looter Guy
The Compound actually had a single looter arrive who lived!
That seems to be pretty much the idea, doesn’t it? The worst part is that they think we are so stupid.
Post 66 is Rita preparedness in Houston.
Let me guess, and I haven’t scrolled yet:
Bev’s a socialist, isn’t she?
I heard she was a very unreliable politician to work with from her peers in the party. They could never count on her positions since she was so wishy, washy. There is no way should would have been elected if the Obama wave hadn’t sweep her in along with Sen. Kay Hagan, another ditz.
sweep = swept
OOOOOOHHHHHH
I like it.

Well, overall, North Carolinians are telling the bitch to stuff it.
Good job, people. Proud of you.
This woman with no respect for the Constitution of the United States is not up for election this year, but we can hope and pray that her violation of fundamental rights will motivate real American voters to toss out their disproportionate number of Dem reps in Congress. NC has a lot of close races leaning the wrong way, and this overreach could, for once, help America. I just hope the people there don’t end up needing to defend themselves after the hurricane.
I doubt you’ll see any large-scale confiscation.....Raleigh make rules; sometimes they get followed...sometimes not.
I think they might have a few other fish to fry during a hurricane.
I’ve got guns....guns a plenty. I WILL defend my property and I WILL defend my neighborhood!
Molon labe!
Gee,
without home defense during a disaster, I feel MUCH safer
thanks government
