Here in South Carolina, the Governor can and does remove public officials for malfeasance in carrying out official duties or public corruption. Time for Gov deSantis to step up if he has similar powers.
A few other points that I'd like to make is that he REALLY should've known better. He's also a FL native for pete's sake, a Ft Pierce boy, not some out of state import that retired in NY and walked into the position.
Its funny to see the city of Okeechobee restrict and remove the comments that folks left on their official social media post regarding this. They were getting called out big time. I seriously doubt anyone paid any attention to the chief's ham handed attempt at tyranny if they were aware of it at all.
The mayor and city council must have forced his hand, because this seems incomprehensible considering where they located., as in it's not Broward County.
This is 100% something for Ashley Moody to get reactive on. We settled this issue in Louisiana post-Katrina. EVERYONE from the mayor's office to the chief,who went along with this and signed off on it needs to be booted post-haste.
I’m in Okeechobee all the time. Hard to believe a police chief there would even imagine doing this. I’m sore it was laughed at by 99% of the citizens. That’s a very southern town full of cattlemen. The police chief should be removed by our governor.
Florida Statute 870.045 mentions curfews, alcoholic beverages and gasoline but not a single word on firearms -- no doubt because any such prohibitions would violate Florida's preemption law.
One wonders if that hick cop or any of the Okeechobee City Council members even bothered to read the statute cited in their illegal prohibitions.
Gov. DeSantis should take strong action against Hagan as a message to other wannabe tyrants with guns and badges, but I seriously doubt he will. Politicians tend to go light on fellow politicians.
I "Do Not Like", but thanks for the Reminder !!! ........ it's not Okeechobee but the USSA that is the warnining in this post. 37 Days is it ? to the Beginning of the Chaos ??? zzzzzz What you saying ???
democRats installed by the Coup of 2020 are just going to be content to abide by the election of 2024
Sure thing, Comrades. Demoncrazy loves you sooo much It will Never leave You....... willingly.
CYA = Conduct Yourselves Accordingly because IF Me/We/You can overcome their Cheat, it will be almost 3 months before Trump can become president again. Buy/Obtain your supplies Now,
btw... Include Food if you are partial to eating :-)
Lee, you’ve got to be F’n kidding me! Ron DeSantis can’t let this stand. Okeechobee of all places! What did a bunch of New York demonrat locusts end up on the county commission or something? It’s time they end up as part of the swamp! Try to come and get mine! F’n swamp rat Communist…
Constitutional rights, especially those in the Bill of Rights, are God given, not subject to the desires of power and control of politicians or police. This clear violation of the Second Amendment (and Florida's preemption law) must nor be repeated in the "free" state of Florida or anywhere else in the other 49 states. It is our duty and right to maintain the liberty of citizens and to reclaim rights which have been stolen by rogue government. By the way, it is likely that there will be an ammo shortage (and price increase) very soon. This is a good time to replenish your supplies of hollow point ammo.
Who would think that a small community such as the City of Okeechobee would pass such Bravo Sierra. I haven't been out that way lately but it sure was rural last time I was there.
There can only be one explanation and that is that this is all political. This was clearly passed to "Wack the hornets' nest" for lack of a better description. Yep, create any situation that will drain our resources.
This is something you'd expect in Broward or Palm Beach Counties not out in God's Country.

Agreed. She needs to enforce preemption. Hard to find a clearer violation.
That’s exactly the time you should have firearms.
Fucking politicians.
I know, right? Idiots.

Didn't they already try sth like that around Hurricane Katrina? Didn't work out any too well, did it?
On the other hand I don't know the research: are firearms the leading cause of hurricanes now?
Yet, so many still believe the local police would never violate your constitutional rights.
