The rationale for the proposal lay in claims that some instructors were short-cutting the required training for permits \u2013 something the commission never clearly proved.<\/span><\/p>\n Chair Leslie Desmukes claims the commission has backed off the proposal for reports and maintaining a roster of students, but no proposed language has been released to instructors. Worse, the commission seems to be making it difficult for the public to attend the second hearing, which is split between two locations \u2013 including one for which the commission initially gave out the wrong address.<\/span><\/p>\n Meeting details:<\/strong> The first half of the meeting (in which NCDOJ claims concealed handgun standards will NOT be discussed) will be held at 10:00 AM at the Wake Technical Community College, Public Safety Training Center, 321 Chapanoke Rd, Raleigh.<\/span><\/p>\n The second half will be held after adjournment of the earlier session after giving participants time to drive to the second location, and will be held at 742 W. Garner Road, Garner, NC 27529.<\/span><\/p>\n GRNC Vice President Andy Stevens will be available for comment at both locations.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Founded in 1994, Grass Roots North Carolina is an all-volunteer 501(c)(4) organization dedicated to preserving individual liberties guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights with emphasis on the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em>####################################################################\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Grass Roots North Carolina \/ Forum For Firearms Education Post Office Box 10665, Raleigh, NC 27605 877.282.0939 (Phone) 919.573.0354 (Fax) www.GRNC.org \u00a0 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1638","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-grnc-press-releases"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1638","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1638"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1638\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1638"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1638"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grnc.org\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
