As one of your constituents and a supporter of Gun Owners of America, I urge you to support HB 3096. Under House Bill 3096, a law-abiding citizen of South Carolina will be able to conceal carry without having to beg the government for a permit. This is particularly important at a time when government closures around the country are dragging out that process -- thereby endangering the lives of applicants in threatening situations. While this bill may not go far enough for some in eradicating all obstacles to carry, it is really a big step forward. Eighteen other states currently recognize that Americans have the right to carry a gun for self-defense without first getting the government's permission to exercise their constitutional rights.  These states, not coincidentally, are among the safest in the country. It's well past time that South Carolina joined these states and repealed the unreasonable and unconstitutional limits on its citizens’ exercise of their Second Amendment rights.  Please support HB 3096.
