At 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, morning a state of emergency was declared in Northampton County.
Tuesday, Gov. Mike Easley declared North Carolina to be under a state of emergency...Effective as of 8 a.m. today, the sale, consumption, transportation or possession of alcohol is prohibited in Northampton County 'except possession and consumption is allowed on a person's own premises.' Additionally, 'there shall be no sale or purchase of any type of firearm or ammunition, or any possession of such items along with any type of explosive off owner's own premises."
Apparently, a few states even have rules dealing with the CONFISCATION of firearms during Staes of Emergency.
Jiminy Cricket, we rail about the Feds but these are state laws!
And what about the North Carolina CCW law? Its pre-empted because the Governor says so?
Geez, this doesn't sound good for "fighting tyranny".
