From the Barrel of a Gun: This Was a Given

This Was a Given

North Carolina’s Democrat Governor Josh Stein Vetoes Constitutional Carry

Maybe we'll get an override on the veto but the GOP no longer has that veto proof majority it once did. There will be no meaningful advances in gun rights in North Carolina through the legislature while Stein is Governor. He regurgitates gun control talking points and tows the party line. He gives not a shit for the rights of North Carolina citizens or the safety of law enforcement officers.
