AI Summary
This bill aims to prohibit state and local officials in South Carolina from enforcing any federal, state, or local laws, orders, rules, or regulations that are deemed to restrict an individual's constitutional right to keep and bear arms. The bill defines "unlawful acts" as those that ban, register, or limit the use of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition, and it provides for civil liability and fines for officials who violate these provisions. The bill contains exceptions for felons and certain other prohibited persons, and it does not affect the prosecution of crimes where the use or possession of a firearm is an aggravating factor.
