The phrase "a gang of thieves" was famously used by former South Carolina Governor Benjamin Tillman. He made this remark in 1890, criticizing the state legislature for what he viewed as corruption and mismanagement. Tillman's statement reflected the intense political conflicts and racial tensions of that era in South Carolina.
