South Carolina Gun Permit Amendment Sparks Debate
The South Carolina House backed a Pitts amendment to turn concealed weapon permits into an option, sparking criticisms that it bypasses SLED background checks and training. Critics warn law enforcement would struggle to verify legality on the street while supporters argue permitless carry would reflect existing background checks. The Senate is urged to reject the House move to preserve safeguards and responsible gun ownership.
