The Republicans SHOULD have had some amendments of their own, so they could appear to be 'compromising'. Amendments that would: 1. repeal the Red Flag laws, 2. recognize that Jim Crow laws were the original reason for the infringements, 3. OPEN CARRY, 4. restrict any future laws infringing on the Bill of Rights.
At least they're making it look like an attempt this time. Still waiting to see if it actually passes. With so many RINOs in T-Town, I'm hesitant to think this is going to make it.

Good News, not Great News! Constitutional carry would be Great News. I would agree one last amendment allowing Constituional carry would make this perfect. Thank you Lee for keeping us in the loop. Cant wait to see the 6pm news coverage. Oh the horror :D
Me too. I swear, bro. If they don't add an open-carry amendment, I'm gonna focus solely on getting us open carry. It sux we have to wait. It doesn't hurt anyone!
My questions are 1) Are these Democrats for real and are the people who voted for them as stupid or evil as they are? I advocate a bill expelling all democrats from the state. 2) With an 80% majority Florida will be the only permitless carry state in the nation without open carry? Are you for real? This is absolutely insane. I don’t even want to personally do it often at all and I just can’t get over it. Pathetic.
Glad to see this happening in FL. As I have posted earlier, Open Carry needs to be added to this bill or a subsequent bill. The FL Sheriffs opposed Conceal Carry when it first was proposed, and favored KEEPING Open Carry , which was Legal at that time. Obviously a "trade off" political switch happened as CC became legal and Open Carry became illegal.
More Obvious, Constitutional Carry is Legally what Citizens are Entitled to do. Legalizing Open Carry also inhibits over zealous LE from harrassing, arresting CC citizens who inadvertenly imprint or show a portion of their firearm.
Open Carry is rarely seen in GA from my experience. It isn't prudent in most urban scenarios to advertise that you are armed.

The proposed amendments were unconstitutional, ridiculous, and sad.
I'd add they're juvenile and sophomoric.

What now? How long till passage??
It's gonna sail thru the legislature, but it's got an effective date of July 1. But that can change.
Those crazy Democrats. Let them require a "mentally fit" exam and drug test on themselves, very few would pass.
We need open carry as well
