State laws differ, and you are very likely reading it correctly.As many of you know, in NC the carrying of firearms are forbidden during riots, and in areas where a State of Emergency has been declared.
This past summer the drought caused many regions to declare such, so if someone CCW's in said areas, are they breaking the law???
So in a Katrina type scenario, I guess North Carolinians are sol?
Please tell me I"m reading this incorrectly...
Fortunately, we are slowly digging out of draconian laws. It is slow but happening and has made progress over the years. We still have some rather "interesting" rules though.
All that for this, Texas will have that language lifted this year. Disaster areas will no longer be subject to the law that prohibited carry in those situations. If I read it correctly, don't count on my interpretation, a license to carry will not be required evacuating and returning to your residence. Licensed carriers will follow the established rulings.
