Governor Cooper Proves Himself To Be A Racist

This is old news by now. I expected that Cooper would veto this bill, and yes, I am angry that when Republicans had a veto proof majority, they did not act. The story is by Larry Keane at The Truth About Guns entitled Governor Roy Cooper Likes North Carolina's Jim Crwo Gun Control Law Just Fine.

North Carolina Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper had an opportunity to end his state’s discriminatory Jim Crow-era law. Legislation to repeal the state’s requirement for citizens to obtain a pistol purchase permit from their local sheriff was passed by state lawmakers and sent to his desk for signature, in what would have ended a practice known to discriminate against African-American gun buyers. Instead, he vetoed the measure.

It was a lost opportunity to stand up for his citizens’ Second Amendment rights and put an end to abuses of permit system that unlawfully denied North Carolinians the ability to protect themselves. NSSF backed the legislation that would have repealed the 102-year-old relic of the Jim Crow-era and brought North Carolina into the 21st Century.

Of course you should read the entire article. It goes into much detail about the use of the law to discriminate against minorities, especially blacks. Funny thing is, it is still used to do so today. Funnier thing: Wake County Sheriff Baker is black. Go figure.

Democrats, who were the party of slavery, and Jim Crow, are always calling other people racist. But with CRT and other Democrat policies, they prove themselves to be the actual racists. By vetoing this bill, Cooper, a Democrat, proves himself to be a racists.  No surprises there.
