CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - As activists work to honor survivors of gun violence this week, state lawmakers are considering a bill that would give some people the ability to openly carry guns in South Carolina.
The Palmetto State is one of only five states in the country without legislation that allows some form of open carry.
