Rally for the Protection of Marriage Act
- Details
- By Pam Evans
A rally supporting the Protection of Marriage Act was held on Saturday, February 28, 2015, at the Statehouse in Columbia, SC. On November 7, 2006, 78% of the voters in our state approved South Carolina Amendment 1, also known as the Marriage Act. This amendment amended the SC Constitution "so as to provide that in this State and its political subdivisions, a marriage between one man and one woman is the only lawful domestic union that shall be valid or recognized." Last fall, J. Michelle Childs, an Obama-appointed Federal District Judge, told the state of South Carolina that our state constitution was not allowed to define marriage as between one man and one woman. Our state's judges were ordered by this Federal Judge to ignore our state's Constitution and to issue marriage licenses to homosexual couples.

S.C. Landowners to be Surveyed About Feral Hog Damage, Interactions
- Details
- By By Jonathan Veit, School of Agricultural, Forest and Environmental Sciences
CLEMSON — A survey designed by Clemson University researchers to begin to quantify the economic and ecological damage caused by feral hogs will soon start showing up in the mailboxes of many South Carolina farmers and rural landowners.
The survey data will help inform a feral hog-management strategy that will be imparted to landowners across the Southeast through a future series of workshops and outreach efforts.
Past studies indicate that feral hogs cause an estimated $1.2 billion per year of economic damage in the U.S., but there is no data on the damage they are causing in South Carolina.
By filling out and returning the survey, participants can help wildlife management professionals with efforts to control an invasive species that is damaging the state’s natural resources and agricultural infrastructure, said Shari Rodriguez, a Clemson wildlife biologist specializing in wildlife conservation on private lands.

Greenville County Republican Women Present Luncheon with Kris “Tanto” Paronto: Survivor of Battle of Benghazi
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Kris “Tanto” Paronto will be the guest speaker at the March 26 luncheon of the Greenville County Republican Women’s Club.
Paronto was one of six CIA contract operators who responded to the desperate calls for help from Ambassador Chris Stevens and his team during the September 11, 2012 attack on the Embassy annex in Benghazi, Libya.
Kris Paronto is one of three survivors of the battle that allowed their names to be used in the book titled 13 Hours in Benghazi.
Kris “Tanto” Paronto is a former member of the Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment. He was 42 years of age when the battle occurred. He had spent a decade working as a contract security operator. He holds a Masters degree in Criminal Justice and owned an insurance adjustment business. He has a son and daughter with his second wife. He considered his job part of the battle between good and evil.
Lisa Benson will also be speaking at the luncheon at the Poinsett Club on Thursday, March 26 at noon.
Reservations are required for this event and may be made by calling Evelyn Hargett at (864) 630-2315. The luncheon cost is $20 per person and is likely to be an early sellout.
Leaders Trying to Rush Child Data Collection Bill Through Congress
- Details
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
One of the unconstitutional and frightening aspects of the controversial education standards called Common Core is the Part that requires collection of personal information on every child throughout their school years. In violation of current federal law, the data is fed into a national data bank.
Now both houses of the Republican led Congress are attempting to ram an act through Congress that would allegedly legalize the data collection, storage and use of personal data on children and their families by the Federal Government.
American Principles in Action (APIA) is calling on Congress to oppose S. 227, the Strengthening Education Through Research Act (SETRA), which would violate the privacy of millions of students and parents.
APIA is blasting Congress for attempting to rush the act through both houses of Congress as early as this week without even holding hearings.
