I dropped my NCSA membership when they sponsored legislature to give LE access to ones medical meds, after being a member and supporter for a few decades.
Government has declared that everything under the sun is mere privilege. Government is full of ****.
HB937 is off to the Governors desk to be signed.
This is what happens when you trust lobbyists!
But hey you can bypass all that by giving a instructor YOUR hard earned money JUST so you can buy a handgun without hassle using a CHP.
Even if you never intended on carrying in the first place. And that lobbyist uses buying a handgun with a CHP as his selling point.
It is time good honest gun owners bypass the lobbyist and start pushing the politicians yourself. Because as long as you trust somebody else to do it for you, YOU are going to get screwed.
If GRNC does not come out hard pushing against this, and I mean very hard, gun owners have clear picture of his agenda.
(e) The sheriff shall charge for the sheriff's services upon issuing the license or permit a fee of five dollars ($5.00). There shall be no limit as to the number or frequency of permit
applications and no other costs or fees other than provided in this subsection shall be charged
for the permit, including, but not limited to, any costs for investigation, processing, or medical
background checks by the sheriff or others providing records to the sheriff.
SECTION 6. G.S. 14-415.23 reads as rewritten:
"§ 14-415.23. Statewide uniformity.
(a) It is the intent of the General Assembly to prescribe a uniform system for the
regulation of legally carrying a concealed handgun. To insure uniformity, no political
subdivisions, boards, or agencies of the State nor any county, city, municipality, municipal
corporation, town, township, village, nor any department or agency thereof, may enact
ordinances, rules, or regulations concerning legally carrying a concealed handgun. A unit of
local government may adopt an ordinance to permit the posting of a prohibition against
carrying a concealed handgun, in accordance with G.S. 14-415.11(c), on local government
buildings and their appurtenant premises.
(b) A unit of local government may adopt an ordinance to prohibit, by posting, the
carrying of a concealed handgun on municipal and county recreational facilities that are
specifically identified by the unit of local government. If a unit of local government adopts
General Assembly Of North Carolina Session 2013 such an ordinance with regard to recreational
facilities, then the concealed handgun permittee may, nevertheless, secure the handgun in
a locked vehicle within the trunk, glove box, or other enclosed compartment or area within or
on the motor vehicle.
(c) For purposes of this section, the term "recreational facilities" includes only the
following: a playground, an athletic field, a swimming pool, and an athletic facility.
(1) An athletic field, including any appurtenant facilities such as restrooms,
during an organized athletic event if the field had been scheduled for use
with the municipality or county office responsible for operation of the park
or recreational area.
(2) A swimming pool, including any appurtenant facilities used for dressing,
storage of personal items, or other uses relating to the swimming pool.
(3) A facility used for athletic events, including, but not limited to, a
gymnasium.
(d) For the purposes of this section, the term "recreational facilities" does not include
any greenway, designated biking or walking path, an area that is customarily used as a
walkway or bike path although not specifically designated for such use, open areas or fields
where athletic events may occur unless the area qualifies as an "athletic field" pursuant to
subdivision (1) of subsection (c) of this section, and any other area that is not specifically
described in subsection (c) of this section."
(c) Except as provided in G.S. 14‑415.27, a permit does not authorize a person to carry a concealed handgun in any of the following:
(1) Areas prohibited by G.S. 14‑269.2, 14‑269.3, and 14‑277.2.
(2) Areas prohibited by G.S. 14‑269.4, except as allowed under G.S. 14‑269.4(6).
(3) In an area prohibited by rule adopted under G.S. 120‑32.1.
(4) In any area prohibited by 18 U.S.C. § 922 or any other federal law.
(5) In a law enforcement or correctional facility.
(6) In a building housing only State or federal offices.
(7) In an office of the State or federal government that is not located in a building exclusively occupied by the State or federal government.
(8) On any private premises where notice that carrying a concealed handgun is prohibited by the posting of a conspicuous notice or statement by the person in legal possession or control of the premises.
getting rid of the PPP was the only thing that this bill had that didn't make it a real stinker. it is my understanding that it not only kept the stupid racist bigoted abused PPP. but did nothing to make sure the sheriffs obeyed the law, period.
this was a pro privilege law. that did nothing for OC. mater of fact it went out of the way to keep people from the rights of gun carry.
i don't really feel like celebrating. looks like the right to carry got screwed again
I think it wouldn't take too much for a smart attorney to make the argument that the CC mentions in the law show there is no "compelling state interest" that would make it Constitutional to restrict OC...
They already have, state parks, CC only. Now carry in certain places CC or carry only with permit. It will continue restricting carry in every public and private place with permit only until OC is outlawed. By then the GA will be liberal, the courts will be liberal. And Kerner V State will be trashed.
And the elitist special card carriers will be the ones responsible not the politicians.What was it that Forest Gump said "Stupid is as stupid does".
The leader our state supposed 2A organization has admitted his hatred towards open carriers.
Thanks WOLF, as of now we do have constitutional carry in NC. the constitution is the permit i have. both national and state wise.
but to remind you all. if you push a privilege you will lose a RIGHT
So...if you push a driver's license, you lose the right to travel?
yes.... try traveling with out one
There are many ways to travel...walk, ride a bike, be a passenger in a car, ride a bus, ride a train, fly, etc, etc, etc...none require a license of any sort.
like i said go ahead and try it
