Hurricane Bev blows gun rights away for all North Carolina residents

Guess we just found out which side of the gun rights aisle N.C. Gov. Beverly Perdue is on. With Hurricane Earl supposedly approaching (ain't even seen a rain drop yet, much less any high wind) Hurricane Bev has already made landfall and is wreaking havoc with our Second Amendment rights.

North Carolina Governor Suspends Gun Rights

State of emergency order makes criminals of concealed handgun permit holders, sport shooters and hunters.”
According to the story, Governor Beverly Perdue signed Executive Order Number 62, declaring a state of emergency in preparation for impending Hurricane Earl. This, in accordance with North Carolina statute 14288.7, would effectively make it illegal for a citizen to transport or posses a weapon “off his own premises.”
 The story in the Charlotte Examiner gives the dirty low-down.
State of emergency order makes criminals of concealed handgun permit-holders, sport shooters and hunters.
[Raleigh] Yesterday, North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue signed Executive Order No. 62, declaring a State of Emergency in advance of Hurricane Earle. In doing so, Perdue suspended the right of state residents to use or carry firearms outside their premises.
Guess I'll be staying home with my guns and hunkering down until Hurricane Bev blows herself out. And you can bet your sweet bippy that me and all my gun-loving buddies will do our dead level best to run that hag outa the Governor's Mansion at the next election.
