Breaking: Dem Governor in NC VETOES GUN CONTROL REPEAL… Is this the end, or just the beginning?...
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper vetoed House Bill 398, which aimed to repeal the state's pistol purchase permit requirement. This law, originally enacted during the Jim Crow era, required handgun buyers to obtain a permit from their local sheriff. Republicans argued the law was discriminatory and a relic of past oppression, while Governor Cooper cited concerns about reducing gun homicides, suicides, and criminal access to firearms. The veto means the repeal effort failed to override the governor's decision due to insufficient legislative support.
