Video of North Carolina Anti-Gun Sheriff Candidate
Yep, we have tools like this in law enforcement in North Carolina (Buncombe County). Here are his common sense gun proposals:
Raise age to purchase any firearm to 21
Ban sale of all hi cap mags, longuns and handguns
Ban rapid fire mechanisms (e.g., bump stocks)
Require CCW to only carry the weapon they qualified with
Require proficiency testing for CCW, preferably annually
Ban any weapon designed for use by the military
Makes joke about taking guns from cold dead hands, then says will take them from you when you die
Dumb ass admits that gun buybacks yield junk guns, but then says he wants to have regular gun buyback programs, using drug forfeiture money.

I could almost understand this rhetoric if the assjack was from Charlotte, Greensboro, or Raleigh, but how the hell could he get elected in the mountains of NC spewing shit like that? Is Asheville some growing liberal shithole?

Someone should remind him that the Second Amendment is there to keep elected officials from becoming tyrants...

What a complete fuck stick, how the hell do people applaud some of his ideas, especially the cold dead hands one?

I wish someone would have asked him if his department would follow those same guidelines. I bet his SRT team would be a little miffed if they had to give up the weapons because they were designed for the military. That armored truck they have looks a bit like it could have been designed for military use as well. Heck, revolvers should be good to go for his deputies as well. Oh wait, weren't revolvers originally designed for the military?
This guy is a boob. "Vote for me. I'll make sure we take plenty of photos of the crime scene once we get there, to find out who killed you while you were waiting on us to show up. I promise!" With a politicians wink and a smile.
It's all about clean living. Just do the right thing, and karma will help with the rest.

What an ass-hat. If wants confiscation - let him by the first officer to start knocking on doors.
Aren't NC county sheriffs supposed to give permission to purchase a handgun, i.e., sign off on a handgun purchase permit? (Not even California has this.) Let's hope for his defeat, and make it a sound thrashing so he is too embarrassed to flap his yap again.

Thank God for B J Barnes in Guilford County. You can believe I am going to stay out of Buncombe County at all possible.
As far as training we get training and, probably what he is not telling you is that the reason LEOS can only carry what they are trained with is because if they ever get into a fire fight involving more that one officer they can readily swap magazines with each other should the need arise and, it makes it much more economical for the armorer to stock parts for their firearms.
I won't say what part of his anatomy he is talking out of.

Sounds like to me he is going to order the murder of innocent citizens in the name of protecting citizens.
Like all communists.
The shitbags applauding, should move to the commie country of their choice.

He’s running for Sheriff, not the legislature maybe he needs to be reminded of that.

Yep. It’s an old Jim Crow law that was designed to keep blacks from owning guns legally. Liberals love it.

Yes, to purchase in NC you need a pistol purchase permit from the Sheriff or a CCW. However, CCW is may issue, not shall issue with no recourse if denied.

He's the exact guy that the 2nd Amendment was created for. Does he realize the iron of that?

yes, Asheville is a place with great food and some really good beers, but politically left and getting lefty'er.
