A billboard-sized advertisement for a gun manufacturer that said "yeah, we carry" has been removed from the concourse of a South Carolina airport. he State newspaper reports Saturday that the Columbia Metropolitan Airport's governing commission decided to take it down after receiving complaints.
Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin said the ad featuring eight different guns made by firearms manufacturer FN America is "the wrong ad in the wrong place at the wrong time." A different billboard and a video at the escalators promoting FN America will remain.

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
