Grass Roots North Carolina is not happy about Raleigh Parks and Rec lollygagging
(Raleigh N&O) North Carolina’s most vocal gun rights group is threatening to sue Raleigh if it doesn’t update signs in city parks that tell visitors firearms aren’t allowed.
Grass Roots North Carolina sent a letter to the Raleigh City Council this week, requesting an update to the signs now that state law allows concealed-carry permit holders to bring guns to playgrounds, greenways and college campuses.
In an email, Raleigh parks director Diane Sauer told the group it would be too expensive to replace all signs in the city’s 100-plus parks – especially because state lawmakers might change the rules again.
Sauer says that they will be replaced over time. Right. Sure they will. Funny how liberals aren’t bothered by spending oodles of taxpayer money to comply with laws they like. Raleigh city lawyer Tom McCormick states that the city won’t enforce the outdated bans on guns in parks, in abeyance of the new laws.
Grass Roots NC should offer to remove the signs for free, with all being turned in for recycling, the better to protect the environment.
