THEY NEED A VISIT - IN PERSON

 

Smithfield has already passed an over-reaching and illegal park ban ordinance. They seem slow to see the error of their ways. We need to clarify the problem they have created in person!

 

PLAN TO ATTEND THE NEXT TOWN COUNCIL MEETING!

 

Their next meeting will be held Tuesday, December 6 at 7:30 pm in the Town Hall Council Chambers, 350 East Market Street, Smithfield, NC.

 

They will be presenting plans for their "friends of the parks" fundraiser. We will present our plans for the park to become more friendly - by allowing safe, sane and sober concealed carry!

 

PRO-CARRY ADVOCATES MAY ADDRESS THE COUNCIL

 

They need your support!

 

IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED:

Prepare to Attend

 

  • Prepare signs to carry and display at the Town Council meeting.

  • Suggested slogans include, "Families Deserve Protection in Parks", "Why Should Only Criminals Be Armed?", "Police Don't Fit On My Belt", "'Shall Not Be Infringed' What Don't You Understand "

  • Keep them clean and respectful, BUT PRESENT THEM BOLDLY WITH PRIDE!

  • Save the date and do your best to attend - YOUR ATTENDENCE IS POWERFUL AND EFFECTIVE!

Deliver This Message

 

 

Town of Smithfield Representatives,

 

It is clear that your town ordinance banning lawful carry in Smithfield parks was not intended to comply with state law (HB 650, Castle Doctrine and Concealed Carry Permitted in Parks), but to take every opportunity to "not comply" with this important freedom-promoting new legislation.

 

The predictable result is an intentionally over-reaching ordinance that is in clear violation of state law.

 

Your ordinance is illegal, irrational, unjustifiable and a clear example of disrespect for both state law and the Constitutional rights of free Americans.

 

It must be rescinded immediately.

 

I will be following progress through Grass Roots North Carolina.

 

Sincerely,

 

A concerned NC voter
