BREAKING: Florida House passes gun control bill
Orlando Sentinel ^ | 7 March 2018 | Gray Rohrer

Posted on 03/07/2018 3:46:43 PM PST by Yo-Yo

TALLAHASSEE — The Florida House on Wednesday gave final approval to a bill that restricts gun sales and sets up a program to arm some teachers and other school employees. The bill is a response to the Feb. 14 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that left 17 students and faculty dead. The final vote was 67-50. It came after an all-day debate on the measure. Democrats favored the gun control provisions in the bill – a ban on bump stocks, an increase in the minimum age to buy a rifle from 18 to 21 and a three-day waiting period for all gun sales – but object to the “guardian” program that would arm some teachers and other school staff.

Where does it say that a person can be committed to prison for a crime? People argue that once someone has done the time they should be fully restored. I believe the interpretation is if convicted, you owe the time and you have that restriction, unless or until it is restored. The two are separate and distinct parts of the punishment for the crime, and serve to protect the society. I still have the issue with non-violent ‘felons’ having their rights removed once they have done the time for the crime, but I absolutely agree that I don’t want released violent felons to have legal access to guns. (They will find them anyway if they are set upon it)

The bill bans 18-21 years from buying a rifle? Handguns and shotguns are OK then? Not as deadly?

Is it any wonder why my state is getting a bad rap when we have so called conservatives voting for Nelson out of spite,. These idiots are just bringing more gun control and a ban on guns , but they are too dumb to see it.

>Buy the jig and then when you’re done building a receiver, sell it

Nobody makes just one, keep making them ‘till the jig breaks. Unless you are talking about the receiver, selling that is still illegal. OK if you possess, just don’t sell. Bury the extras just in case. When they come for your AR, assuming you don’t fight back, strip it down and give them the serialized lower. There ya go, there is your goddamn AR. Then rebuild. The rest of the AR parts? Oh those, I sold them to somebody, I forget

And how are those laws working? I’m sure that none of them ever get guns..... right ? You still haven’t explained or shown where in the 2nd amendment it says or has restrictions about owning or the possessions of firearms

Gun grabbers will sneer & point out that their bill doesn’t prohibit 18-20 year olds from bearing issued arms while in the military. And fighting & dying, too; that’s all OK.

Because gun grabbers believe that ONLY the police & military should have access to guns.

Voting for Nelson would be voting for a gun ban, homosexual agenda, abortion, more spending for welfare, more illegals, and we have bozo’s in my state who said they would vote for that , because they are angry at this bill.

Good grief, what complete idiots. I can only assume they are trolls, or people who moved down here, and have not been here for long, or are just the most stupid voters this state has.

So the young Ms. Gonzalez is the Supreme Leader of Florida, and the legislature there bows to her. Not much of a surprise to an outsider, because all of the other voices in the infamous CNN debate were New York accents except for Dana’s.

Tell more people to join organizations that will defend our Second Amendment rights. This is a critical time for that kind of action.
