concurring.
For all the reasons given in the majority opinion taken together, the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it precluded defense counsel from reading the passage from State v. Smith, 65 N.C. App. 684, 686-87, 309 S.E. 2d 695, 696-97 (1983), rev’d, 311 N.C. 287, 316 S.E. 2d 73 (1985). I would not hold (and it is not clear to me that the majority does hold) that any one of the reasons given, standing alone, would have been enough to sustain the action of the trial court. On this basis I concur in the result reached by the majority.
