No guns allowed, declares city, it's a 'snow emergency'

No guns allowed, declares city, it's a 'snow emergency': "Residents of King, N.C., were startled earlier this month when a declared snow emergency triggered a law forbidding the possession of firearms in public.

Furthermore, North Carolina isn't the only state where authorities can ban gun sales, or even possession, upon declaration of 'emergency,' even though what constitutes an 'emergency' might be deemed questionable."
