South Carolina Democrats Love Their Guns — and Back Some Controls
COLUMBIA, S.C. Walk into the Palmetto State Armory, one of South Carolina's largest gun ranges, and you'll find a big sign paying homage to Justice Antonin Scalia, "Champion of the Second Amendment." You'll also find a lot of Democrats.
The Armory is a one-stop weapons center guns are manufactured, sold and available for practice and it attracts a diverse crowd.
"You have a lot more women, African Americans, Asian Americans the multicultural aspect of it has become so much more of an everyday occurrence," said the store's marketing officer, Adam Ruonala. "It really is encouraging to see from our industry."
Ruonala agreed to let an MSNBC reporter approach any customers in the store this week, and a good number said they were planning to vote in South Carolina's Democratic primary on Saturday.
