Anti-Gun
Senator Shoots Intruder
State Senator R.C. Soles (D - NC)
Long
time Anti-Gun Advocate State Senator R.C. Soles, 74, shot one of two
intruders at his home just outside Tabor City , N.C. about 5 p.m. Sunday,
the prosecutor for the politician's home county said.
The
intruder, Kyle Blackburn, was taken to a South Carolina hospital, but the
injuries were not reported to be life-threatening, according to Rex Gore,
district attorney for Columbus, Bladen and Brunswick counties..
The
State Bureau of Investigation and Columbus County Sheriff's Department are
investigating the shooting, Gore said. Soles, who was not arrested,
declined to discuss the incident Sunday evening.
"I
am not in a position to talk to you," Soles said by telephone.
"I'm right in the middle of an investigation."
The
Senator, who has made a career of being against gun ownership for the
general public, didn't hesitate to defend himself with his own gun when he
believed he was in immediate danger and he was the victim.
In
typical hypocritical liberal fashion, the "Do as I say and not as I
do" Anti-Gun Activist Lawmaker picked up his gun and took action in
what apparently was a self-defense shooting. Why hypocritical you may ask?
It is because his long legislative record shows that the actions that he
took to protect his family, his own response to a dangerous life
threatening situation, are actions that he feels ordinary citizens should
not have if they were faced with an identical situation.
It
has prompted some to ask if the Senator believes his life and personal
safety is more valuable than yours or mine.
But,
this is to be expected from those who believe they can run our lives, raise
our kids, and protect our families better than we can.

State Sen. R.C. Soles shot one of two people who he said were
breaking into his Tabor City home about 5 p.m. Sunday, officials said.
Columbus County Sheriff Chris
Batten said Kyle Blackburn was taken to Loris Community Hospital in South
Carolina. Late Sunday night, a spokeswoman at the hospital said that Blackburn
was in good condition.
The shooting occurred on
Soles’ property when two men went to the senator’s house and tried to kick in
his front door, Batten said. The incident happened about a quarter mile from
Canal Street and Stake Road.
The other man involved in the
incident is B.J. Wright, Batten said. Multiple media outlets have reported that
Wright was a legal client of Soles – an attorney – and that Soles gave him
money while Wright was in prison.
The State Bureau of
Investigation is probing the shooting, Batten said, because the agency is
already looking into accusations against the senator.
A man recently accused Soles
of attempting to molest him, leading authorities to ask the SBI to investigate.
The man later said his allegation was false.
First elected in 1968 to the
House before moving to the Senate in the mid-1970s, Soles is thought to be the
longest-serving representative in North Carolina history.
In an institution that
rewards seniority, Soles’ longevity has allowed him to climb the rungs of
power.
But with the SBI now
investigating the allegation and rumors of a separate federal investigation,
the man from Tabor City faces a test of his political mettle.
