Dear Senator;
Dear Senator: At first, Senator Julia Boseman told constituents that, “The current version of SB 8, Expanding Safe Zone Around Schools, [sic] does not include firearms limits.” At least now she admits that “[SB 8] makes it an offense to possess or carry a gun, rifle, or pistol in a public park, child care center, or playground” (although she continues to ignore the appurtenant parking lots which would render North Carolina’s concealed handgun law worthless). And what “compromise” does Senator Boseman offer? In her words: “Because of concerns that retail outlets with playgrounds might fall under these provisions, it is likely that the playground provision may be removed from the bill during committee consideration.” So in return for the *possibility* that one small measure *might* be removed once the bill hurdles toward passage, North Carolinians should be satisfied for rendering their families defenseless in public parks, child care centers, and all of their appurtenant parking lots? Fat chance. Here is the only thing that will satisfy me: Sen. Boseman must relegate SB 8 to the legislative junkyard where it belongs and then draft a *new* bill containing *only* Section 1, which deals with illegal drug sales. Perhaps then parents can feel secure in being able to defend their children and families against violent predators. I will continue monitoring this matter via alerts from Grass Roots North Carolina. Thank you, A Concerned NC Voter
