South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley continues to stick by her guns.Mark Wilson/Getty ImagesThe Examiner
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who, as a member of the legislature in 2006, supported the death penalty for repeat sex offenders, was back in the news yesterday revealing that she also backs a measure that would make it legal to carry a handgun openly or concealed without a permit, according to The State newspaper in Columbia, S.C.
Haley’s remarks came during a bill signing in which she inked legislation that will allow armed citizens to carry in restaurants and bars, provided they don’t drink alcohol, and that firearms are not prohibited by the businesses. That contrasts with Washington law, which allows carry in restaurants, but not lounges or taverns. South Carolina gun prohibitionists were not happy.
Let's see if I got it all. She's for executing the mentally ill sex offenders in addition to carrying guns in bars AND constitutional carry? Wow, what a state.
