“It is clear South Carolinians need a fundamental reordering of their hearts and minds on this issue”
Good luck with that. I’ve visited many states and none were as trashy as SC. I’ve seen litter crews clean up a road and it was a mess within a week. My road looks like the surface of the moon and the shoulders are always covered in garbage.
It’s a systemic problem beginning with poor education. No laws will convince ignorant rednecks not to litter. Even if we vastly improved our educational system overnight, it will take two generations to resolve the problem.

You moved for the “beauty of the South”, but sadly, reality set in.
Welcome to a Deep Red State. Make sure to not have any health issues!

Bring back the chain gangs, put them to work picking up trash everyday.
BINGO!
The trash items you described say a lot about the kind of folks that leave it. If you don’t respect yourself…
