No joke: South Carolina now requires ’subversives’ to register

South Carolina Subversive Agent Form

Above: screenshot of the PDF form subversives are required to fill out.

The headline says “no joke” but I’m not convinced this is real:

Terrorists who want to overthrow the United States government must now register with South Carolina’s Secretary of State and declare their intentions — or face a $25,000 fine and up to 10 years in prison.

The state’s “Subversive Activities Registration Act,” passed last year and now officially on the books, states that “every member of a subversive organization, or an organization subject to foreign control, every foreign agent and every person who advocates, teaches, advises or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States … shall register with the Secretary of State.”

There’s even a $5 filing fee.

  1. It’s not a joke. The SC legal code has it right in it: http://www.scstatehouse.gov/code/t23c029.htm

    Title 23, Chapter 29. Here’s the index:

    If it’s a hoax, it’s a well executed one.

  2. Just how subversive would they be if they felt they had to obey this?
