I, the signatory of this petition, do hereby affirm that:

  • Whereas North Carolina concealed handgun permit-holders have proven themselves sane, sober and law-abiding for 16 years, with a revocation rate for the 395,251 permits approved of only 0.30% and virtually no reported crimes;

  • Whereas in the 16 years since concealed carry became law, State Bureau of Investigation Uniform Crime Reporting Data demonstrates that overall violent crime has dropped by 43.5%, murder by 47%, rape by 35%, robbery by 43%, and aggravated assault by 44%;

  • Whereas allowing concealed handguns in restaurants has become law within the last two years in Virginia, Tennessee and Ohio without reported problems, bringing to thirty-seven (37) the number of states with such laws;

  • Whereas crime in Virginia restaurants dropped by 5.2% in the first twelve months of their law;

  • Whereas concealed handgun permit-holders will still be prohibited from imbibing alcohol while carrying firearms; and

  • Whereas lawful North Carolinians have a right to protect their families and themselves from violent predators:


I do hereby demand that immediately upon returning to session, the North Carolina General Assembly pass legislation using the language contained in Section 1 of House Bill 111, Version 4, to enable concealed handgun permit-holders to carry firearms in restaurants, including restaurants with alcohol permits. I will monitor action on this issue via Grass Roots North Carolina legislative alerts.

Help honor retiring gun rights hero

GRNC dinner will honor Rep. Mark Hilton

Sadly, a gun rights hero is leaving the North Carolina House: The Honorable Mark Hilton (R-Catawba, GRNC ****) will not run for re-election in 2012. First elected with GRNC Political Victory Fund support in 1996, Hilton has sponsored legislation for concealed handgun reciprocity, bypassing handgun purchase permits, parks and restaurant carry, Castle Doctrine and far more. He has been instrumental in GRNC’s success in killing scores of gun control bills.

GRNC annual meeting & dinner

At its May 19 annual meeting and dinner, GRNC will honor Rep. Hilton with the presentation of a Remington Model 1911 pistol as the organization’s first “Lifetime Freedom Achievement Award” recipient. Please join us in honoring this patriot.
