Not sure about Talley, but those other four on the subcommittee with him are scum sucking lowlife, who despise The Constitution they swore to uphold. Hopefully they stay busy on the subcommittee and do no harm elsewhere, especially with regard to 2A.

Lawyer/legislators don’t want to fix the system. It works too well for them…..Corrupt to the core

Harpootlian may be on board now, but didn’t he makes some awkward comments last March about how Murdaugh’s conviction showed that there was no problem with the current system?

FITS, I can’t wait till Laura Hudson stops paying you as Eric Bland did; then you will turn on her as you did on Eric Bland and it shall, God willing, be delicious.
I TOTALLY lost confidence in Laura Hudson when she FALSELY claimed that South Carolina, with its undeniably over-crowded prisons, is “busily emptying our prisons.”
And I continue to see through your hypocrisy as you continue to play dumb about who really profits from their seats on the Judicial Merit Selection Commission AND the “citizens” screening committees: YOUR buddy-benefactor lobster-guzzling Pete Strom and the dictator of Kershaw William Tetterton.
Your solution is far from “ideal.” In a uni-party state, a term-limited Republican governor will NEVER nominate minority judges.
Also, the judges themselves are PERFECTLY HAPPY to never have to raise or spend money even for retention elections.
So, think again; and give us some credit for knowing what you are up to.
