HB 1039
This bill, sponsored by Representatives Mark Brody, John Blust, George Cleveland, Larry Pittman and Michael Speciale, would allow certain members of the school faculty or staff to carry a handgun on school grounds to respond quickly to acts of violence and imminent threats of violence.
Finally, a few courageous legislators are stepping outside of the circular rhetoric and are proposing a practical and effective solution that will actually protect the children.
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED!

- EMAIL THE SPEAKER AND THE RULES COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN. Use the copy/paste details provided under ‘Deliver This Message’ to insist on a fair hearing for this bill.

Suggested Subject: “The School Self-Defense Act Must Receive a Hearing“
Dear Speaker Moore and Chairman Lewis:
I am writing today to strongly urge you to support the school Self-Defense Act (HB 1039). Adults protecting the children is far more effective than simply demanding the destruction of our liberty and the confiscation of our guns. We do not have time to waste with “solutions” that only serve to deprive the law-abiding of the ability to defend themselves and our children.
The same deterrence effect that has helped lower the crime rate will have the same results in schools. A potential shooter won’t know which school personnel are armed, disrupting their often carefully laid plans.
The deterrence effect of armed adults will do far more than the futility of making everything a “gun-free” zone. Those only work with criminals who obey the law.
I will be monitoring your actions on this issue through alerts from Grass Roots North Carolina.
