Let me say first off I am not a member of any big gun group (NRA, GOA, and SAF). The only organization I am part of that I give money to is my church. That is all I have time for. If you were to speak with my friends, I would probably be known for my presentations, lessons and seminars on the Creation/Evolutionism topic. I invest a lot of time into that issue. I am not a gun nut, but I love freedom, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Founding Fathers. I am also sick and tired of constantly disarming myself every time I go to a movie, a steakhouse, or any normal place where my safety can be violated.
Now to the meat of the matter at hand. I am currently at the petitiononline.com sight and am going to put on a petition to have statute 14-293.3 repealed or done away with (whatever the lawyer term is for making those laws go away). In case you are like me and can’t remember what that statute says…
14‑269.3. Carrying weapons into assemblies and establishments where alcoholic beverages are sold and consumed.
(a) It shall be unlawful for any person to carry any gun, rifle, or pistol into any assembly where a fee has been charged for admission thereto, or into any establishment in which alcoholic beverages are sold and consumed. Any person violating the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor.
First of all the site says to prepare a statement. This is where I need your help because I cannot just sit here for days and write a masterful statement. If any of you have seen the statements for and signed the open carry petition for SC, then you know a little of what I’m going for. In the statement we need to give reasons for the law to be erased from the book. I can think of a couple.
1. I don’t drink, so prohibiting me from carrying is not fair
2. Leaving my firearm in the car is more hazardous because of vehicle theft. The gun is much safer with me, under my jacket or in a holster on my hip.
3. Criminals are not deterred by laws such as these and will carry firearms in these places anyway, leaving honest citizens disarmed and helpless.
4. Other States allow there citizens to carry in these places without incident, and in some cases allowing citizens to carry in these places has saved lives.
I can’t think of anything else right now. If you can think of more reasons, post them here, once we have a good case I am going to need assistance again with typing up a statement. There are a few other loopholes, but these are the biggest ones.
Step 1, some reasons for the law to be fried, step 2, a statement. The rest is not that hard, such as a petition title, what type of information to be present (names + address or just names etc.) Help me guys, this is huge for the State and it could all start in this thread. I need some assistance.
