Cooper vetoes bill allowing guns in churches on private school property
Laura Leslie, WRAL — Gov. Roy Cooper announced Friday he has vetoed a bill that would have allowed people to carry weapons in churches that share property with private schools. Current law doesn’t allow the public to carry guns on educational property. But backers said people who attend services at a church that shares property with a school should have the right to defend themselves and their congregations in case of attack. Cooper included a one-line veto message: “For the safety of students and teachers, North Carolina should keep guns off school grounds.”
