Castle Doctrine Coming To NC?

[Uteridge]

This is good news. I am about to get stationed in N.C. and it is great to see that I will not lose my right to defend myself from violent felons in my own home by moving to this state.

SB34 passed 3rd reading today!

I actually heard a report on the radio this AM stating that the bill DID PASS. Is this true?

Not 100% sure of the sequence of events in how this becomes law. Does it go to the GOV's desk now or what?

 

[Gouranga]

YES!! It has passed the Senate, on to the House where it died last time around. NC residents, now is the time to hit your reps up LOUD AND CLEAR.

Let them know SB74 is coming to the House and you EXPECT them to support it as is without ANY modification.

We need voices on this guys, even if it is just an email. The Senate was overwhelmed with our voices on SB74, lets do the same with the House.

 

[Beach Nut]

Well, that's one hurdle crossed. Now it's off to the State House next. I think
the vote may be closer here so let's keep the pressure up on our State
Representatives. So far, so good.

Anyone in NC heard anything else about this one?

I believe it was scrapped and put in with HB 650 that passed and was signed in to law.
