quote:

Late this week, a group of Republican lawmakers in South Carolina introduced a bill that would allow the state to secede from the United States if the federal government violated the Second Amendment.

The measure, which was referred to the South Carolina State House Judiciary Committee on April 5, would open the possibility of the state seceding from the U.S. if the federal government began confiscating legally purchased firearms.

quote:

Notwithstanding another provision of law, the General Assembly shall convene to consider whether to secede from the United States based upon the federal government's unconstitutional violation of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, if the federal government confiscates legally purchased firearms in this State."

Worked out so well the first time, so might as well try again.

Yet that still somehow makes more sense than re-electing Lindsey Graham time and time again.

Maybe this will force Sessions to approach this issue rather than run from everything like a coward.

The problem isn't with the federal government seizing arms, it's with state and local governments trying to do so. While I understand the sentiment behind it, doing something like this tells me those voting for it aren't really paying attention to where actual attempts at confiscation are happening.

It would have been far better to pass a law stating that no state agency nor agency of a municipality may confiscate legally obtained firearms from owners that have not broken a law.

Worked out perfectly for the South the last time around....within one hundred years the south was receiving BILLIONS of dollars from the Union more than we are sending them......imagine how much welfare folks in SC will receive in the form of military spending and highways when the union kicks their ignorant assess second time......


This is why the south is so red.....because like all teenagers living in mamas basement southerners like the money mama gives them (Washington being the mama here) but “she ain’t the boss of me”........

Won’t happen for college football reasons alone! Football is one of the few things more popular than guns in the south!

Nowhere near as much as the blue states are receiving in corporate welfare.
