Subversive Groups Must Now Register In South Carolina
Hugh Pickens writes "The Raw Story reports that terrorists who want to overthrow the United States government must now register with South Carolina's Secretary of State and declare their intentions — or face a $25,000 fine and up to 10 years in prison. The 'Subversive Activities Registration Act' passed last year in South Carolina and now officially on the books states that 'every member of a subversive organization, or an organization subject to foreign control, every foreign agent and every person who advocates, teaches, advises or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States ... shall register with the Secretary of State.'"

"Speaking the Truth in times of universal deceit is a revolutionary act." -- George Orwell
Everyday I teach my young sons about life, liberty, and property rights. The pursuit of happiness comes when the government is not meddling with your life and making it worse.
The trouble is, I have no ammo for my guns since Obama has taken office. No 9mm, No 30.06 shells. Black powder to make your own is scarce. I guess I can throw my beer cans at the government when its time to overthrow it.
To all South Carolinians, the invasion from Florida will commence as soon as I can load my beer cans into my truck and overthrow your government from the south. In the mean time you can overthrow the government of Florida from the North. Charlie Christ will surrender to your whims when you stimulate him.
PS: How in the hell does the LA/NY/CHI/MIA gangs get their ammunition when I can't get any?
Enjoy,
It's just the normal noises in here.
Every member of a subversive organization, or an organization subject to foreign control, every foreign agent and every person who advocates, teaches, advises or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States, of this State or of any political subdivision thereof by force or violence or other unlawful means, who resides, transacts any business or attempts to influence political action in this State, shall register with the Secretary of State on the forms and at the times prescribed by him.
But you're not using force or violence, so no problem, right? But thanks to the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform (aka the Recumbent Re-election Act), blogging about an candidate within 60 days of an election might be unlawful.
Do you even lift?
These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
That really does sound very Catch-22 ish. Does planning to blow up the headquarters of "Our Lord M$" count as subversive?
Did ACORN register? Tim S.
Eh, it doesn't matter if this is a legacy law passed in the days of the Cold War, when the Communist Party in the U.S. actually promoted violent overthrow. All that matters is that the left-leaning elitists have someone else they can call "backward" or "ignorant". No sense in letting facts get in the way of a perfectly good argument, right?
... elipses...
