North Carolina Overrides Governor’s Veto, Eliminates Jim Crow Era Pistol Permit
AmmoLand ^ | April 4, 2023 | Dean Weingarten

On March 29, 2023, the North Carolina legislature voted to override the veto of Democrat North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper. In the Senate, as expected, the vote was 30 to 19, with 30 Republicans voting to override the veto of the Jim Crow era pistol permit law, 19 Democrats voting against the bill, and one Democrat not voting with an excused absence.

In the House, there are 71 Republicans and 49 Democrats. 3/5 of the vote is required to override a veto. If all members voted, 72 votes would be required. In this case, three Democrats were excused from voting, so only 71 votes were required for the veto override. All Republicans were present. All 71 Republicans voted to override Governor Cooper’s veto.

The requirement to obtain a permit to purchase or transfer a pistol was passed in 1919 during a resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan in the United States. Democrat Woodrow Wilson, an avid racist, was elected president of the United States with significant Klan support. President Woodrow Wilson segregated the federal civil service, which had been integrated before his election.

In addition to removing the Jim Crow era requirement for a sheriff to issue a permit to purchase a pistol, SB 41 removes the ban on carrying a concealed handgun in a place of worship which is also educational property.  It authorizes concealed carry for certain law enforcement facility employees. It creates a statewide safe firearms storage educational initiative.

SB 41 aligns state law on handguns with the existing law on long guns, rifles and shotguns. Purchasing a rifle or shotgun from a private party in North Carolina does not require any special permit. Purchasing a long gun from a federal dealer in North Carolina requires the same process as in most

Three Democrats were absent to make the veto override possible. Now, one Democrat has switched to Republican, so the Republicans have a veto proof supermajority in the House in NC.

I can attest a supermajority of Republicans….especially hard fought Patriotic Republicans capable of vetoing Roy Cooper ..was a long fought battle engaged town by town, district by district…..and won!

THIS is how we take back our country!

......AND, WOW!!!..........Mark Robinson is a breath of fresh air!!

He could very well be our FIRST REAL Black President!

Black people in this country NEED thousands of Mark Robinson’s in their leadership instead of the many marxist, socialist, racist, narcissistic, self serving creeps they have.

My dad was born in 1913 and named after Woodrow Wilson. He was a lifelong demo crap and was really disappointed when he found out I was a Republican (Conservative now). Like one of our friends, even though he was conservative he couldn’t pull the lever for a Republican. I told him the demo craps had left me, not the other way around.

Similar experience with my Dad. He was born in 1915. Although he was a churchgoer, owned guns, a started his own business, a WW2 vet, he was a Democrat. One time I told him he was a Conservative and he told me I was full of 💩.

Meanwhile just to the west, the marginally Republican governor is possibly signaling his support for unconstitutional red flag laws and has his lackeys in the Dept of Safety testify against true constitutional carry.

To which the government of NC should send a Federal Marshall to him for arrest and removal from the bench if he or she tries.

In a way the Rats are the same as they were 100-150 years ago in that they are still seeking to strip citizens of their rights. In another way they are different in that they are no longer satisfied is stripping away just the rights of minorities, they want to take away the rights of everyone.

Suck it Cooper.

And now with that one Democrat defecting to the Republicans, they hold a supermajority in both houses. Time to ram a whole bunch of stuff right down Cooper’s throat.

Yup. It is somewhat mind-boggling that our history is being trampled upon and no one is paying attention. BUT the democrats/commies have had the public schools by the balls for a long time.
