#WINNING … in the SC Courts!
Part 2
The SC Republican Platform had two huge victories in South Carolina courts this week … one a 4-1 SC Supreme Court Ruling for Life (HERE) … the second a “settlement” victory for the 2nd Amendment (see below).
Both situations should never have been in court … and neither should have been in the courts for as long as they were … but both were victories typically not seen in the SC State Judicial System.
Why?
Because SC needs #JudicialReform!!!
These two court victories are a sign that things are changing here in South Carolina … because of YOU … and as such we need to #DoubleDOWN!!! #PressON!!! #PressHARDER!!!
PART 2
ILLEGAL SIGNS REMOVED!
Attorney Lauren Martel (HERE) filed this 2nd Amendment case on behalf of her client Graham Horsman against the Charleston County Parks and Recreation Commission (CCPR) back on October 4th, 2022 … and almost 11 month later it has been settled!!!
Read the Summons & Complaint HERE.
Background: Three-foot by four-foot unlawful firearm signs were originally erected in August 2021 prohibiting the carrying of firearms on 11,000 acres of public land in Charleston, and subjecting concealed weapon permit holders to fines, arrest, and imprisonment.
This firearm ban was enforced in direct violation of S.C. Code Ann. §23-31-510 (HERE), which prohibits the governing body of any county, municipality, or other political subdivision in the state from regulating the transfer, ownership, possession, carrying, or transportation of firearms, ammunition, components of firearms, or any combination of these things.
Senator Shane Martin (R – Greenville, Spartanburg & Union) stepped in and requested a SC Attorney General’s Office Opinion on the matter … and as expected the AG’s Office opined that the CCPR signs were illegal.
Read the SC Attorney Generals Opinion HERE.
But even then, with a July 22, 2022, SC Attorney Generals Opinion … it still took the filing of a lawsuit (on October 4, 2022) and 13 months for the Charleston County Parks and Recreation Commission to VOTE on August 21st, 2023, to settle the lawsuit and immediately remove the signs.
Congratulations and thank you to Mr. Horsman, Attorney Lauren Martel, Senator Shane Martin & Representative Matt Leber … and the folks at South Carolina Carry … for this legal victory and making this happen for the Citizens of South Carolina.
GET INVOLVED … BOARDS & COMMISSIONS
One major lesson learned here … as this case involves a citizens board … YOU must get involved in your LOCAL boards & commissions.
The Charleston County Park & Recreation Commission (HERE) is composed of seven citizens nominated by the Charleston County Council and appointed by the Governor of South Carolina. Commissioners vote on policy-related issues and serve two-year staggered terms. Consecutive terms are not limited.
So yes, Governor McMaster APPOINTED these commissioners that REFUSED to comply with the law until forced with a lawsuit. He could have fixed this, or at least prevented it!
These are the things we elect our Governor to do, and it is not that hard to do. Citizens are asking why isn’t Governor McMaster (or his staff) doing it? We would all like to know.
Friends, there are City Boards, County Boards, Legislative Boards and State Boards … if your are not on one (or two or three) … YOU need to get on one.
We will have more on how to soon … so stay tuned.
StepUP! #GetINVOLVED!
Coffee & Politics – July 31st, 2026 – YouTube (HERE), RUMBLE (HERE) & X (HERE)
Friends, we have been running a weekly Coffee & Politics Meeting out of our Greenville Headquarters for nearly 5 years now … and it has been a huge hit. It is how we communicate our vision and #Mission to or local Volunteers and Community … and it one way we RECRUIT more people to the MAGA America First movement.
THIS WEEKS UPDATE: Today we had some hard discussions. Do you / want to WIN? Or do you just want to COMPLAIN? It is a serious question as one thing we have observed over the years is that grassroots conservatives often ONLY WANT TO COMPLAIN!!! Why? Because WINNING is hard work. WINNING takes dicipline. Winning is all about ACTION, ACTION, ACTION … and WINNERS never quit (while quitters never win). Folks, this us America’s 250th. Our founding fathers riskeds and often sacraficed it all – lives, fortunes and sacred honor!!! Sure, they complained, they fought with each other, they were scared, tired, and beat down … but they never quit. They ORGANIZED, ORGANIZED, ORGANIZED … and they WON. The American Revolutionary War lasted for 8 years, 4 months, and 15 days. It began on April 19, 1775, and ended on September 3, 1783. Rome was not created in a day, and some have been fighting this fight for more than 8 years, 4 months, and 15 days … but WE DON’T QUIT.
Sometimes “tough love” among family and friends is necessary to make us stronger. Now lets get on and win this thing NOW. #ReOrg2027!!!
And congrats on the WEDDING announcement. We love you too!!!
HAPPY 250th America!!!
