Beaufort GOP ExCom calls on Burr and Tillis to vote against gun control | Eastern North Carolina Now

resolution was unanimous

ENCNow

The Executive Committee of the Beaufort County Republican Party this evening unanimously passed a resolution calling upon US Senators Richard Burr and Thom Tillis to vote against legislation that created a gun control "red flag" law or created incentive for states to do so.  The resolution noted that such laws violate the due process rights of citizens as they allow action based on anonymous complaints which are very subject to abuse.  It also pointed out that there are already mental health laws with proper safeguards to deal with those who are a threat to themselves or others.

Good move for our local Republicans to try to beat some sense into our loopy senators on gun control, but it is going to take more than just Beaufort County to try to beat some sense into their thick skulls.

Here is the actual resolution against gun control adopted by the Beaufort County Republican Executive Committee:

Resolution on “Red Flag” laws


WHEREAS so-called “red flag” laws deny the fundamental right of due process to gun owners, in violation of their Constitutional rights, and

WHEREAS, so-called “red flag” laws do not address any mental health issues of those subject to them, and

WHEREAS, there already exist laws to evaluate the mental health of a person and take appropriate steps for evaluation and treatment if they are determined to be a threat to themselves or others, including confinement at a mental health facility, and

WHEREAS, “red flag” laws are part of the slippery slope to gun control,

BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that the Beaufort County Republican Executive Committee calls upon our US Senators Thom Tillis and Richard Burr to oppose any federal legislation that enacts “red flag” laws or creates incentives for states to pass “red flag” laws.
