Excellent demonstration of a...sesquipedalian use. :thumbup:

You're a real lexicomane. :cool:

Actually, Cold, I am an Episcopalian.

In addition to the fact lacking, anecdotal, paint with broad brush, general accusation.....the isolated incidents are presented as if what is reported is a general condition....like TV is no longer TV of the past or not my father's village anymore.....emotional, sky is falling catharsis.

A full list of places where carrying a concealed weapon is prohibited is at Statutes & Constitution

Online Sunshine

Note that places that primarily serve alcoholic beverages is explicitly off limits.

One provision of the statute is "(b) A person licensed under this section shall not be prohibited from carrying or storing a firearm in a vehicle for lawful purposes."

Get real, people. People carry guns in cars. Virtually every police car you see has some kind of long gun in the trunk.

Correct. However, a person does not even need a concealed carry license to store a firearm in a vehicle. Under Florida law, your house and your vehicle are considered your "castle" and you can have a firearm in them, even without a license.
