Republicans have a supermajority in both houses, and the Governor is Republican.
"Once the new laws take effect, the new North Carolina will require photo identification at the polls, levy a flat income tax that reduces rates for many, make it harder to get an abortion, offer less generous unemployment benefits, require cursive education in schools, give low-income families vouchers for private schools, require fewer government regulations on businesses, resume executions for capital crimes
and allow concealed handguns in bars and restaurants."

It will take no time for Obama and Holder to file a law suit to stop the voters mandates.....

Exactly. I'm sure he can find a sympathetic judge
somewhere in the 4th circuit court district........which includes Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia.

So basically like Texas pretends to be. How's the job situation there?

Well, looks like I won't have to go far if VA goes to the dogs.

I'll be watching with interest to see where this goes. I thought this from the article was interesting...
“I would just remind you of one thing,” House Republican leader Edgar Starnes said when Democrats complained about Republican appointments. “The Republicans won the election. We are in control.”
Sounds familiar to me, only in reverse and at the state level.

I think getting an NFA signed off depending on where you live is pretty much the case anywhere. I'm pretty sure folks in Austin, TX as an example, would have a hard time getting the Travis Co Sheriff or APD chief to sign off on NFA items. That is one reason why so many folks go for an NFA trust....

At least they are getting rid of the silly 'paid addmission' rule. Right now you can't carry into any assembalge of people where you have to pay an addmission to enter. This means movie theaters, concerts, etc are all off limits. They went way to the other side and will now even allow carry in a 51% location with a CHL.
