State of Emergency Declared King N.C.- No Guns or Alcohol
Here We Go !
KING, N.C. -- Residents in King were fumed over the weekend after a state of emergency declaration restricted the sale of alcohol and the carrying of firearms in vehicles.
King Police Chief Paula May said she’s received hundreds of threats related to the restrictions, which banned driving from 12 a.m. Sunday to 5 a.m.
The state of emergency for King was declared by members of the City Council after Stokes County authorities also declared a state of emergency.
Under North Carolina law, May said, when a state of emergency is put into place that includes a ban on driving, the sale of alcohol and carrying of firearms in vehicles is also banned.
“I think there’s been some misinterpretation that I personally have declared martial law and taken away people’s right to bear arms and that’s erroneous,” May told WXII reporter Jermont Terry. “By law, statue 14-288.7 automatically went into effect. And that law which goes into effect when there’s a state of emergency prohibits the transportation, purchase sale and possession of firearms other than on one's own premises

My question is why?
Why have this law?If I was stuck in the house I would want to enjoy a few drinks while I am cleaning my guns.

"Obamney care," Nuff said.
And i thought
the Bill of Rights said in the 2nd Amendment "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.". I guess i was mistaken according to that Police Chief (who took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution). Someone needs to ask that Police Chief- "Which law is the law of the land, the 2nd Amendment granted by our Creator or the "State of Emergency" declared by the State???" & "What do the words "keep" and "bear" and "shall not be infringed" mean???"

This is an interesting way
This is an interesting way for government to circumvent the Constitution, specifically the 2nd Amendment. Taking away the right to keep and bear arms in North Carolina shouldn't be as simple as the state declaring a state of emergency.
Was NC one of the states that passed legislation preventing the confiscation/outlawing of firearms after Katrina? I know there were maybe two dozen states that enacted laws to prohibit the confiscation or outlawing of legally owned firearms during any times of emergency, whether it be natural, man-made, etc.
