What is the consequence of carrying a concealed handgun into an area where it is prohibited by law in North Carolina?

  1. Warning for the first offense

  2. Fine only

  3. Fine and potential permit revocation

  4. Mandatory jail time

The correct answer is: Fine and potential permit revocation

The consequence of carrying a concealed handgun into an area where it is prohibited by law in North Carolina is a fine and potential permit revocation. This means that individuals who are caught carrying a concealed handgun in these prohibited areas may face financial penalties and may also have their permit to carry revoked. Option A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not fully address the consequences of carrying a concealed handgun in a prohibited area. A warning for first offense may not be enough to deter individuals from breaking the law, while a fine may not be a severe enough consequence. Additionally, option D of mandatory jail time may not be accurate as the consequence may vary depending on the circumstances. Therefore, option C is the best answer as it encompasses both a fine and potential permit revocation as a consequence.
