Black North Carolina Congresswoman Quickly Escorted Away From Polling Site After White Man Shows Up With Gun

Congresswoman Adams was quickly whisked away, and Mayor Lyles left soon after. Poll watchers said the man was here for nearly an hour before heading in to vote.

North Carolina is an open carry state, so he technically was not breaking the law. Still, voters and volunteers here are describing this as voter intimidation.

Update: Per CMPD, officers have arrested Justin Dunn for trespassing. He voted at precinct 212, was asked to leave, but returned two hours later. CMPD says the original call they received was “regarding Dunn possibly intimidating other voters."

It's almost like they should have done something the first time he was there?

I asked CMPD why Justin Dunn was not also charged with voter intimidation, along with trespassing: “Based on the information provided to officers on the scene from witnesses, there was not sufficient evidence to charge him with Voter Intimidation," CMPD PIO Thomas Hildebrand said

Why do these guys always look unkempt and in knockoff costumes of forest or desert camouflage on asphalt streets?
Do they know how ridiculous they look?

It would have be insane, the swat team would have been out in force with riotgear.

They WERE intimidated if they left without voting when they saw him. @FBICharlotte

These people are violent. They send death threats to female congresspeople daily. Republicans are the majority of domestic terrorists. By far. pic.twitter.com/oIbArjjIxK

Agreed. I feel like if you can't open carry at an event like a parade or protest, that policy should carry over to polling places.

Arrest anyone doing that type of pure intimidation.
