It's Cheri Beasley vs Gun Dealer Ted Budd as North Carolina becomes the latest state to experience a mass shooting.
Yesterday in a NE Raleigh neighborhood North Carolina became the latest state to experience a mass shooting. It’s not exactly a least any state wants to be a part.
Wiki put it this way;
On October 13, 2022, a shooting left five people dead and two others injured in the Hedingham neighborhood of Raleigh, North Carolina.[1] The suspect, described as a teenage male armed with a long rifle, was detained after being cornered by police at a nearby residence.
Other headlines;
Police chief names victims of Raleigh mass shooting; 5 dead, 2 injured
Raleigh police identify those killed, injured in mass shooting
While this was going on one of North Carolina’s more notorious operatives and muckraker sent out a now deleted tweet; (see tweet within the tweet, within the tweet.)
x F**k you @DallasWoodhouse.
“It’s not the time for politics” but you made it so and then cowardly deleted the below tweet.
I don’t know you. I don’t know what you’re running for. Hell, you could be a dem. IDK. You are trash and so is anyone that supports you.
Good talk.

One reason Dallas Woodhouse may have deleted his tweet is others may have pointed out to him that maybe Ted Budd didn’t want to be associated with a mass shooting in North Carolina. Why? Ted Budd is a gun dealer. Granted it’s not his only enterprise (his family had a agri-business that went bankrupt leaving farmers in a lurch as he and his family walked away with $million$).
I’m using a tweet to highlight the above ProShoots’ story because the newspaper article is behind a paywall.
Woodhouse in trying to smackdown Judge Beasley and Jimmy Ervin aka Samuel James Ervin IV grandson of Samuel J. Ervin Jr, former US Senator (Senator Sam) of Watergate fame, by projecting what might happen in 30 years opened the door to the question of who sold the shooter his guns. Gun dealer Ted Budd doesn’t want that question out there.
While the GOP is trying to focus on urban crime, the last thing they want is for the American public to focus on young males going around shooting innocent civilians. And who might be selling them those guns. As well as, who keeps making it harder for us to pass laws making it tougher for these guns to be on the streets available for these mass shooters?
