WMBF News reports that HORRY COUNTY, SC (WMBF) - A Horry County HOA set a new rule banning firearms from all shared property, and there are questions on if this rule is going against gun owners’ rights.
Forest Pines Condominiums residents received an email Monday stating that firearms are not allowed in shared spaces on the property, which leaves some residents concerned.
The new rule set by CAMS Management states that neither carried nor concealed firearms are allowed in the condo’s pool, clubhouse, mail kiosks, sidewalks, and parking areas.
The rule still allows firearms in residents’ homes and to and from the residents’ vehicles.
One resident said that while she understands why firearms would not be allowed at pools or other shared spaces, her concern is not being able to carry at the mail kiosks, sidewalks, and parking areas.
“What if I go out at night and I’m like walking, so if I get mugged, are they now financially responsible?
