“Obviously, I do believe in the Second Amendment,” she said. “But when it was written, things were different. Everybody knew how to handle guns. Everybody did. But beyond that, I can tell you that I voted for the bill. Like I said, I voted it out clean.”

She lies! Sandy Senn has been one of the more notable obstructionists for years, doing what she could to keep Constitutional Carry from becoming a reality in SC. She also voted, along with every other Senator, to give Legislators status as “preferred people” who could carry anywhere. You see, people like Sandy Senn, Penry Gustafson, and the rest of the clowns in our Senate are better than us peasants. They can be trusted with rights that peasants cannot.

Please, replace every SC Senator this year.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but a person might find it kind of pitiful if the best criticisms that Matthew Leber can come of with are that Senn:
Voted to raise the gas tax… has anybody ridden on our roads lately?
Voted in favor of children having to wear masks in schools…how many South Carolinians died from COVID?
Voted to require gun purchasers to have some type of training…have you looked at the number of deaths from gun accidents in the state lately?
Voted like a Democrat…who was aware that only one party had a monopoly on wisdom and honesty in this state?
How about talking about issues that might really matter to the average citizen of this state? You might start with crime and the court system, the environment, education, health care, poverty, economic development, or streamlining state government?

Yeah, they raised our gas taxes a few years ago, ostensibly to improve the poor condition of our roads. Tell me how that worked out. Potholes are everywhere and seldom filled or filled in a way that the patch only lasts a few days at best. The money was always there for fixing our roads. Unfortunately, the Legislature pissed it away on other things we could do without, or it went into Leatherman’s pockets. With him gone at long last, where is our money going now? Not into needed repairs, that’s for sure.

As to the gun stuff, that IS a crime issue. You see, gun restrictions only impact the law-abiding, the very people who are NOT the problem. More gun restrictions on the law-abiding make for an easier time for criminals. Being criminals, they don’t care about a carry charge when planning to rob, assault, or murder, someone. That is just the cost of doing business to them. The gun freedom thing does matter to the average person, whether they realize it or not.

I’ll be so glad when Matt Leber loses and the low country doesn’t have to hear his crazy rants anymore.
