| COOPER HAS ARMED SECURITY, SO WHY WOULD HE CARE IF YOU HAVE TO JUMP THROUGH HOOPS JUST TO BE SAFE? |
Funny how that works, they cynically exploit a divisive issue when it helps them seize an advantage to gain power. While they ignore the same issue when it will restore liberty and civil rights to the people.
The PPP was based in racism, and to paraphrase them, The law “was motivated by an unconstitutional intent to target African Americans” demanding their common sense Civil Rights. But the anti-liberty Left and their gun-grabbing minions in the anti-freedom lobby don’t care about that kind of racism.
Anti-liberty Leftists also have no problem pretending that we need to save something that doesn’t exist. Yes, these are folks who say we have to ‘save’ a non-existent handgun licensing system. Most assuredly, the existence of that was news to us as it was to you.

Message for Senate Republicans:
Suggested subject: “Support HB 398: Repeal archaic permit law”
Dear Senator:
I strongly urge you to support overriding the Governors veto of HB 398, “Pistol Purchase Permit Repeal,” Repealing our archaic Jim Crow-era pistol purchase permit bill is long overdue. It should also be noted that the anti-liberty lobby has doubled down, wanting to add long guns unconstitutional gun confiscation orders to it’s ever tightening control scheme.
If the law is repealed, background checks for gun purchases will be done at the time of sale, rather than up to five years earlier, as under current law. In fact, the Charlotte Observer documented cases of people getting purchase permits, committing crimes, but still having permits available for use (and to bypass the National Instant Background Check System) even after becoming ineligible to purchase firearms.
This year, the North Carolina Sheriffs Association reversed its position and now supports repealing the law. With both gun rights supporters and law enforcement organizations now supporting repeal, only gun control advocates want to keep the system despite the fact that it gives criminal access to firearms.
I will be monitoring your actions on HB 398 through Grass Roots North Carolina legislative alerts.
Respectfully,

Suggested subject: “Support HB 398: Repeal racist permit law”
Dear Senator:
I strongly urge you to support overriding the Governor’s veto of HB 398 “Pistol Purchase Permit Repeal.” and bring background checks into the 21st Century. The North Carolina Sheriffs’ Association now supports repeal of our Jim Crow-era pistol purchase permit law as “duplicative.”
This 100-year-old vestige of the past was motivated at least in part by an unconstitutional intent and almost surgical precision to target and discourage African Americans from exercising their common sense civil right of self-defense.
Meanwhile, as depicted in a recent NC Law Review paper, black applicants are being denied permits at a rate three times that of whites, revealing that racism in permit issuance continues to this day.
Moreover, sheriffs in Wake, Mecklenburg, and Guilford counties are using the law to obstruct lawful citizens from obtaining handguns for self-defense, even as rising civil unrest around the country makes it more vital than ever that citizens have the means to defend their families.
I strongly encourage you to support the override of the veto so we can be rid of this archaic permit law, after which background checks for gun purchases will be done at the point of sale, not up to five years prior. I will continue to monitor this issue through Grass Roots North Carolina legislative alerts.
Respectfully,
