I’ll just say that the new compound has Rattle Snakes, Bobcats and Mountain Lions about.
Open carry seems to be the way to go while out in the “yard”.
When does she move into the double wide Governors mansion out there in Pierre?
Slowly but surely the USA is arming up for the civil war that is certain to follow the Marxist attempt to overthrow this government of ours.
Nice double wide.
Why SD elected both Tom Daschle and George McGovern as senators has always mystified me.
I think I’m in love.
“South Dakota is a deep red state.”
That won’t do. I can see democrat scum on the coasts gearing up to move there and stank it up.
“This wasn’t the first time. It was a long-standing performance. Governor Daugaard vetoed his first Constitutional Carry bill in 2012.”
And the prick was reelected?
Why did he bother to veto it? It was a popular measure.
You have to have serious statist philosophy to veto Constitutional Carry.
He did it twice, and worked to thwart efforts to pass it in between.
As a native South Dakotan and a former lobbyist to the SD Legislature, there are some unusual political dynamics in the state. There are really two states, the eastern part of the state surrounding Sioux Falls is more cosmopolitan, more college educated and more liberal though a long way from leftist. The western part of the state, often referred to as “west river”, is rural ranch country...Noem is from this area. Daugaard is from Sioux Falls and his viewpoint would not be supportive of a Constitutional concealed carry. Noem will likely support a Constitutional concealed carry.
Thanks for the detailed information.
Any explanation, other than “The Second Amendment is outdated” for the hostility of Constitutional Carry in the Souix Falls area?
South Dakota isn't deep red. Just ask Never Trumper John Thune.
That must be up in that fancy area by the new WalMart.
I believe the Senate should always have been Majority conservative. A majority of states has always been conservative. Why didn't the makeup of the Senate reflect that fact?
The best explanation I can come up with is there are few enough Senators elected each cycle (33-34) that the Progressive Media and allies can focus enough resources to get and keep RINOs or other Progressives in office in those several states, if the population knew there political philosophy.
John McCain is a clear example.
He repeatedly lied, again and again, ran as a Conservative, then ruled as Progressive, for decades. Fully supported by the Progressive media in Arizona and the U.S.
Because Sioux Falls sucks. I used to do projects for the city. Most difficult people I have ever dealt with. They think their sucky town is the most important in the world.
I have numerous relatives living in the rest of the state. Two different worlds
I’m aware of the situation in South Dakota, and in other similar states. I’ve lived in more than a few.
I was simply pointing out that, contrary to your claim, South Dakota is not deep red, not on election day, anyhow.
They also had Tim Johnson a couple of cycles.
Just so readers understand “Constitutional Carry” does away with permits. Proud to be a citizen of a state exercising Constitutional rights.
