The Durham city council met with the anti-gun ACORN organizer Rev. Melvin Whitley in an informal “work session” on Jan. 22, according to The Herald Sun.
As I reported in December, the Durham city council has been considering supporting Rev. Whitley’s proposal for ammunition regulation modeled on Illinois law. The proposal would require, in part, a citizen to obtain a permit from the local sheriff prior to purchasing any ammunition.
The Durham city council was hit with a lot of outcry against supporting this kind of back-door gun banning, and they removed their meeting with Rev. Whitley from the council’s agenda. However, it appears when they thought no one was looking, they did indeed meet with Rev. Whitley in an informal work session.
Let me be very clear… The Durham city council needs to hear from you on this matter. I have talked before about working locally to fight anti-gun politicians, and this is the perfect example. Local politicians are saying one thing, but doing something different on a gun issue.

Also, if you live in North Carolina, support the pro-gun group Grass Roots North Carolina. They have been out in front on this topic, and are really fighting hard for your Second Amendment freedoms.
