In a bold move the State Legislature in South
Carolina today made the radical step of
passing legislature to control the ownership and proliferation of Confederate flags
that they determined was the cause of the recent church shooting. This legislation mandates a 90 day waiting
period and rigorous background check for anyone who wishes to purchase a Confederate flag. Also individuals will not be permitted to purchase more than
10 flags at a time, and Confederate flags of more than 30 inches will require
special permits. The State House Speaker was quoted as saying “While
this legislation is going to be unpopular, it is meant to save lives in the
long run”. The governor has indicated that he will sign this
bill if it passes the State Senate.
In other legislation, the State House voted down measures
that would require background check for all gun purchases, control sales of
large quantities of ammunition and measures to control un-regulated gun show
sales.
