If you can pass the bar and guns bill why not an open carry I use full size hand guns hard to be concealed so I was wondering and my question is what has changed since last year I can under stand tweaking parts of the bill for training people who want open to conceal or open carry my real question can a concealed permit be turned into a open carry permit train corse fees same proceedings for concealed carry but give us the options for both with that per meant if this is something that you could consider with are senator s and move it back in a positive direction it would be a great thing and possibly sway those who have read the first and 2nd open carry proposal. Don't all out throw change one keep the trainin change what the permit allows you to do make the ppl follow the same system we do now but with an open clause with ure permit please it's been over a year nothing has been talked about or discussed about this matter and maybe this one email change the way we approach this law and both sides feel comfortable I voted for you I believe in you believe in roping a tweaking this billing know from the feelings ppl have they will vote u to a second term if we could just feel like we a got a victory from you because you stood firm and backed the population you will always have ppl who hate everything you say or do but there not republicans and I hope that I never see this stage turn blue and stays red on the political maps on election day if u don't pass the bill and a democratic canidate takes office the topic will be buried for years. the reason behind this letter is me speaking to members of the community and looking at stats from other states with not only drops in guns violence but other crime rates as well including murder I would hate to loose my mother or my father because they couldn't get to there weapon in time bc of the concealment act but sometimes saying hey we can't throw it all out but we can change what a permit in the state of s.c. means by letting permit holders conceal and open carry let's are policemen know this is a permit holder when they see a man or woman with a holestered weapon outside of there shirts in a civilized manor and just like now you give the police the permit if b you are in a open or concealed carry state with you r firearm if you are approached by a s.c. law enforcement officers make us show are license to conceal and open caray make us go threw with are standard procedure for how we already handle and go about getting a concealed license I wouldn't have a problem and the unreasonable ppl will say we'll they have the same classes and train to get the concealed and open carry permit not doing away with any laws in place just turning 1 permit Inot a joint permit to carry both ways that is an effective way to make sure non trained citizens start open caring and doing away with the rest of are qualifications it takes to carry in the first place I want to beleve things can your the right person to change them I know you are the one to reform are laws so can you please look into reform on the gun law of open carry and take ideas like mine and apply them to the reform of a open carry law like I've stated with suggestions on how both sides can win why can other states do away completely with there laws and we can't tinker with are laws????? Please gov.haley can you look into this my return email is jjandadelynjohnson@gmail.com or cell 864-603-8112 my name again is justin lee johnson feel free to respond please I would love to hear more details of where we stand in the process and why we are being held back? the last remaining states why do we have to be stuck in this loop hole of never changing policy? Best wish p.s. u shoot good loved it first woman in office I've heard off shooting there firearms for the world to see best go so far I knew voting for you was the right person to vote for let's see if you will personally read my letter and bring the topic back into discussion thank you for your time and every thing you do, justin johnson
