Yes indeed, NC. I am not a la...@Shootin' Buddy<br /><br />Yes indeed, NC. I am not a lawyer, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn last night. Here is the Statute:<br /><br />"N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-415.12A<br />Any individual who has applied for and has been issued a concealed handgun permit<br />must follow certain regulations concerning its use. Not only must the individual carry the<br />permit along with proper identification whenever the handgun is being carried concealed,<br />but he/she must also inform any law enforcement officer who approaches him/her that<br />he/she is in possession of a permit and a concealed handgun. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-<br />415.11(a) Failure to do so is a first offense infraction and subjects the permittee to<br />payment of a fine of up to $100.00. However, in lieu of paying a fine for the first offense,<br />the individual may choose to surrender his or her permit. Any subsequent offense shall be<br />punishable as a Class 2 Misdemeanor. Any individual who violates any other standards for<br />the carrying of a concealed handgun with a permit is guilty of a Class 2 Misdemeanor. Any<br />person who has not been issued a valid permit but carries a concealed handgun, is guilty of<br />committing a Class 2 Misdemeanor for the first offense, and any subsequent offenses are<br />Class I Felonies. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-415.21(a-b)<br />Although a person may have a permit to carry a concealed weapon, permittees are not<br />authorized to carry the permitted weapon anywhere they desire. The weapon <b>may not be<br />carried in the following areas:</b><br />1. any area prohibited by N.C.G.S. §§ 14-269.3, 14-269.4, 14-277.2, or 120-<br />32.1. (school grounds, areas where alcohol is sold and consumed, state<br />property, legislative buildings, and public gatherings, such as parades);<br />2. any area prohibited by 18 USC § 922 or any other federal law;<br />3. any law enforcement agency or correctional facility;<br />4. a building housing only state or federal offices;<br />5. an office of the state or federal government that is not located in a building<br />exclusively occupied by the state or federal government;<br />17<br />6. a financial institution; or<br />7. any premises, except state owned rest areas or stops along the highways, where<br />notice that carrying a concealed handgun is prohibited by the posting of a<br />conspicuous notice, or statement by the person in legal possession or control<br />of the premises.<br /><br />And as to the have a beer thing: "It is unlawful for the permittee to carry a concealed handgun while consuming alcohol,<br />or at any time while the permittee has remaining in his or her body, any alcohol, or a<br />controlled substance previously consumed." <br /><br />So, the most common comment during CCW classes is: "why bother?"<br /><br />@Old Grouch- I program in PLC ladder logic; it may not do what you want the first time, but there are no compile errors! I find Grammar Nazi's useful however. Writing, like shooting is a perishable skill! I will entertain any feedback that sharpens my skills in writing or shooting. <br /><br />And in my humble defense: "The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary."<br />--James D.

I will say that your lesson was cheaper and more useful than the ones I took working on the Masters degree! It was a technical degree so I will try to assuage your comment in my head with that. <br /><br />It has always been a shortcoming and embarrassment to me, I can tell you anything, but the the written word presents many issues to me still. <br /> <br />It humbles me to be blogging with this group of people. I don't how y'all tolerate me! I can say y'all, I was raised south of the sweet tea line! <br /><br />Thanks! <br /><br />Have a great weekend!<br /><br />@Tam, you actually went to a theater?
