At any rate it looks as if Constitutional Carry in Florida is on track to become law. As I understand it the House Judiciary Committee approved the bill 17-6 and it now goes to the full House for floor discussion. The Governor as I understand it has already indicated that it will get his signature if the Legislature approves it.
It IS so important that it should be voted on like a referendum on the next major election by ALL the people of Florida that go to the polls. I don't TRUST the Florida legislation to do the RIGHT THING.
