When there is an emergency, be it natural or man-made, the citizens of North Carolina simplt want to defend them selves...
That's why the foundation that successfully challenged the anti-gun law in Chicago has now filed suit to overturn the North Carolina "Emergency Powers" gun ban...
The lawsuit contends that state statutes that forbid the carrying of firearms and ammunition during declared states of emergency are unconstitutional. Plaintiffs also contend that a North Carolina law that allows government officials to prohibit the purchase, sale and possession of firearms and ammunition are also unconstitutional because they forbid the exercise of Second Amendment rights as affirmed by Monday’s Supreme Court ruling in McDonald v. City of Chicago, the landmark Second Amendment ruling that incorporated the Second Amendment to the states.

“Through this lawsuit in North Carolina,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb,” we intend to show that state emergency powers statutes that allow government officials to suspend fundamental civil rights, including the right to bear arms, are unconstitutional and therefore should be nullified. Citizens do not surrender their civil rights just because of a natural or man-made disaster.”

I keep wondering when the libs will figure out they can't win this way so instead they will pass an exorbitant tax on guns and ammo and promise to use the funding for schools or some other liberal feel good crapola.

Come on down to Virginia tomorrow...we're celebrating a new law that allows concealed carry into restaurants that serve alcohol (Applebys, Chilies, etc)...
Of course, you won't know who is carrying....

We sell weapons to terrorists in Iran and Afghanistan, but They don't want me to have a handgun?

Psssssst. They already are. It's the people who carry legally that would also like to be able to defend themselves.
