South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson on Thursday warned residents who are planning a mass resistance operation to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activities, that doing so would result in "serious consequences."

The attorney general's office highlighted an upcoming meeting of the state's chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America that is scheduled for Saturday, which it maintained was legal, but warned that "efforts to obstruct or interfere with law enforcement will have serious consequences."

The office also highlighted recent activity that posed a danger to the public, including a protest last week in which a demonstrator allegedly crashed a vehicle into a crowd. 

"The Attorney General’s Office emphasizes that we cannot, and will not, allow any actions that threaten the safety of our communities, law enforcement officers, or innocent bystanders," the office said in a news release. 

"Let it be clear: any individual who engages in illegal activities, whether by obstructing law enforcement, interfering with investigations, or attempting to disrupt lawful immigration enforcement efforts, will face prosecution to the fullest extent of the law," it continued. 

South Carolina has seen an "unprecedented amount of illegal immigration," according to the attorney general's office, but the office said it is committed to working with the new Trump administration to enforce federal immigration laws.
