The issue of gun control has once again come to the surface, in light of several bills passed by the state Legislature before the session ended.
SB 1467, which would have permitted guns to be carried on the public right-of-ways of school campuses, and SB 1201, the "firearms omnibus" that would allow guns in public buildings, cleared both houses this session.
The governor vetoed SB 1467 because it was "poorly written," but has not given any indication on whether she will sign or veto SB 1201.
These pieces of legislation prompted fierce debate over where guns should and should not be allowed as well as the type of regulations that can be imposed on them. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
