GRNC Rally For Constitutional Rights

September 18, 2017 by

Squish the Magic Rino returns to Raleigh!

The North Carolina General Assembly returns to Raleigh on October 11th and Squish and his friends at Grass Roots North Carolina will be there to welcome them back. HB 746, which would allow permitless concealed carry among other things, is still stuck in the State Senate. While it has passed the House, Senate leaders seem to think bowing down to a certain wealthy ex-mayor and his hired minions is preferable to listening to those that got them elected.

More details in this release put out by GRNC:

RALLY FOR YOUR RIGHTS

Squish the Magic RINO returns to Raleigh for your
Constitutional rights…

Do you remember all of the speeches
during the last election cycle, how the Republican candidates couldn’t
say
enough about how pro-Second Amendment they are? Unfortunately, it seems
that Republicans have since become complacent, and they are taking gun
owners
like you for granted.

We know this because House Bill 746 is still stuck
in the Senate, a bill that gives NC Republicans a perfect opportunity to
follow through on their campaign rhetoric. Yet, “stuck” is the key term
here, not “follow through.” 

Worse yet, we
know that Michael Bloomberg’s out-of-state money has been hard at work
in North Carolina, with a few well-paid operatives whispering fear and
doubt
into the ears of our elected leaders. This isn’t a new game for them,
since they prognosticate doom about every pro-Second Amendment measure
that
comes up … and when these pro-gun bills are passed into law, their
fears of doom are proven to be completely unfounded. Still, we want to
make sure
that responsible, law-abiding gun owners are being seen and heard by
their elected leaders. Let’s remind them that rich New Yorkers and a few
paid
minions don’t speak for us in our state legislature.

 

Attend the Rally in
Raleigh

As it stands, the
General Assembly is scheduled to return for a special session on
*Wednesday, October 11th, and GRNC has planned a gun rights rally for the mall area between the Legislature and the Legislative
Office Building. However, if we are to effectively remind Republicans about you… we need YOU there. Together, we can
encourage our leaders to live up to their promises and move House Bill 746 in this special session.

If you can
attend, please click here to RSVP. See below,
under ‘Immediate Action Required,’ for more details.

Barring a
schedule change, which is entirely in the hands of the politicians in
Raleigh, the
demonstration will take place on *Wednesday, October 11th at 11:00 AM. 

And, just to ensure Republicans don’t miss
the message:

Squish the Magic RINO
will be
there!

*
A
legislative session is currently
scheduled to open October 11. Technically speaking, this is subject to
change, and is ultimately up to the legislators themselves. Should the
date
change, GRNC will keep you apprised, and do its best to hold an
effective rally on the appropriate date. As possible and if required,
your flexibility
is requested and greatly appreciated.


IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED!
  • RSVP ON THE GRNC WEBSITE
    and let us know that you
    can attend the rally (or go to: https://www.grnc.org/october-11-demonstration)

  • ATTEND THE
    RALLY    ! It will be located on the grass mall just north of the Legislative building at 16 W. Jones St., Raleigh,
    NC    . The rally will begin at 11:00 AM, *Wednesday, October 11, but it’s wise to get there early to alleviate parking concerns.

  • PLEASE DRESS FOR THE PRESS. We encourage professional attire. Please, no inflammatory slogans on clothing or signs. We
    want to show everyone that North Carolina’s gun owners are the most civil, respectful, law-abiding citizens!

Rally Against The RINOs In Raleigh

July 31, 2017 by

The North Carolina General Assembly is returning for a special session on August 3rd. Grass Roots North Carolina is preparing a welcome for them called Rally Against RINOs in Raleigh. It is to remind the Republicans that they only achieved their supermajority in both houses due to the efforts of gun owners. The impetus for this rally is the inability of the Republicans in the House to pass HB 746 with a veto proof majority and the refusal of the State Senate to bring the bill to the floor for a vote.

If you are in the Raleigh area or if you can be in the Raleigh area for the rally on Thursday, the details are below:

LET’S REMIND OUR REPUBLICANS WHO

PUT THEM IN OFFICE.
Remember in the last election how the Republican candidates couldn’t get enough love from pro-second
amendment North Carolinians? Remember how they promised to be the stalwart guardians of your gun rights?

As expected, they have forgotten who
“brung ’em to the dance.” We know this because House Bill 746 is stuck
in the Senate — the result of petty quibbling and inactivity.
Politicians are always at risk of becoming complacent (especially when
their party holds a supermajority in both the house and the senate), and
they
sometimes need to be reminded of who they work for.

Worse yet: we
know that Michael Bloomberg’s out-of-state money has been hard at work
in
North Carolina, with a few well-paid operatives whispering fear and
doubt into the ears of our elected leaders. This isn’t a new game for
them, since
they prognosticate doom about every pro-Second Amendment measure that
comes up … and when these pro-gun bills are passed into law, their
fears of
doom are proven to be completely unfounded. Still, we want to make sure
that responsible, law-abiding gun owners are being seen and heard by
their
elected leaders. Let’s remind them that rich New Yorkers and a few paid
minions don’t speak for us in our state legislature.

The General Assembly
returns for a special session on Thursday August 3, and we’ve planned a gun rights rally for the mall area between the Legislature
and the Legislative Office Building. Most importantly: we need YOU there to join the chorus of North Carolina’s
law-abiding, responsible gun owners. Together, we can encourage our leaders to move House Bill 746 in this special session.

The
demonstration will take place on Thursday August 3 at 11:00 AM. This will be a safe, fun, family-oriented event where we will introduce a new
figure to North Carolina’s political scene: Squish the Magic RINO!

IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED!
