If you have an issue with what I said maybe you should take it up With Mr. Valone next time you speak to him. Here I will quote him for you.My understanding dmatting...very specific narrow scope aimmed only on declared emergencies statutes...

ps: really nc-tarheel GRNC is the sole contributor to this overturn of a bad statute and i suppose GRNC is also singularly responsible for the Gov to not seek re-election?
Paul Valone GRNC said:Congratulations! You have won a great victory today as Grass Roots North Carolina and the Second Amendment Foundation won the Bateman v. Perdue lawsuit to strike down North Carolina's "state of emergency" gun ban. You should also thank GRNC supporters Michael Bateman, Virgil Green and Forrest Minges, Jr., who were plaintiffs in the suit.

This is awesome news. Kudos to SAF and GRNC, and all the gun owners in NC who have been working to get this stupid law struck down.
This is truly a huge victory for NC gun owners, and for pro-2A people nation-wide...

You had a little victory of your own up in MD recently, didn't you?
Has the ruling actually made a difference in people getting permits yet up there, or is it being challenged already? I can't imagine the Baltimore city council simply allowing all permits now even with the ruling lol.
Come back home Dreamer, come to the light...
The MSP has put a temporary delay on the issuance of permits, because they have been literally flooded with thousands of applications. They are required by State law to issue permits within 90 days, but they have said the current influx of applications has made that impossible.
And the State AG has filed for a Stay on the ruling taking effect, which the Ruling Judge granted, pending further clarification.
MD will fight this one tooth and nail--the idea of the serfs being legally armed is so appalling to the State that they will gladly spend MILLIONS of taxpayer dollars fighting it all the way to the SCotUS if they have to, to get it overturned (which they won't because it is VERY likely that if they file for an appeal, that it will NOT be heard by the Federal Appeals Court, because they will have almost sero change on winning, based on case law precedent...)
Right now we're in a holding pattern in MD, because the State AG, the MSP and the Governor are essentially taking a huge, steaming, legalistic dump on the US Constitution.
If I didn't have all my family up here, and my wife's job wasn't so freaking fantastic here, I would move back to NC in a heartbeat, believe me. But for now, my place is here. There is still work to be done...
