A key thing for existing permit holders to know is that they are no longer required to disclose their status to a law enforcement officer. It used to be that the moment they asked for your identity you were required to notify them you were carrying

South Carolina is now a constitutional carry state. I am very grateful that I have a card in my wallet that says that I have passed a background check and can intelligently do this versus all the MFs that are going to get themselves into trouble because they didn't take a class proving that they know what they're doing and learning when they can and cannot use a weapon. Things are about to get interesting in South Carolina.

From my reading of the law it only allows open carry by people that do not have a permit to conceal carry. And a very key thing to remember is that you can only use a gun to defend yourself or someone else in a life threatening situation. This is not the same as using a gun to protect property. I have sat through multiple classes on when you can and cannot pull a weapon and a lot of people in those classes do not understand that fine detail. If someone is trying to steal something you cannot pull a gun. Only if you or someone else is in a life-threatening situation is it permissible to pull a gun. Anything else could land you in jail.

Permits would still be an option and there would be stronger penalties for people barred from carrying.

Lancaster Chick-fil-A owner.


Restaurant owner charged with sex crime involving minor

LANCASTER, S.C. — The owner of a popular restaurant in Lancaster County was arrested Jan. 10 by the Fort Mill Police Department in neighboring York County. Lafe "Hunter" Thompson, 56, who owns the Chick-fil-A off S.C. 9 Bypass in Lancaster, was charged with second-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor Wednesday evening. The victim, a 14-year-old boy, lived in the Fort Mill area. Fort Mill police were called to the victim’s home about 1:30 p.m. in reference to an alleged assault involving a juvenile. The criminal investigations division was soon called in and arrived on scene to take over the investigation. Through interviews with the victim and his mother, detectives were able to get a photo of Thompson from the victim’s cell phone. With help from the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office, deputies went to Thompson’s home on Carrington Drive in Lancaster, where he confirmed that he was in Fort Mill to meet with a young man. Thompson was booked and jailed at the Moss Justice Center in York. If convicted, Thompson could serve 11-14 years in prison. The case remains under investigation.
