Terrorists in South Carolina must now register with the state or face a $25K fine and 10 years in jail. Here’s the story from Daniel Tencer at the Raw Story,
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 state’s “Subversive Activities Registration Act,” passed last year 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.”
It should be obvious that if you are part of a group intent on overthrowing the U.S. government (ie breaking a multitude of laws), then registering with the state isn’t going to be a high priority.
