#2 *sigh* We'll never get that here in PA with that p***y Rendell as governor, but I'm happy for Floridians! With Jeb in there, this will probably get signed this week.

#3 They predicted "Wild West" the the "Must Issue" concealed carry permit laws came out.

Didn't happen then, will not happen now.

There are already states with "Make my Day" laws that allow home defenders to not back into a corner first. Texas and Colorado have them and they are very lenient, if I remember correctly. No bloodbaths there from people defending themselves.

When will the LLL give this one up? They lie and lie and lie and nobody in the MSM ever calls them on it.

#4 "Iâm sorry people, but if Iâm attacked I shouldnât have a duty to retreat,"

#5 Opponents said it will make Florida like the "Wild, Wild West."

TV show or movie? I liked the TV show, but not the movie.

#6 As a former legislative staffer in Tallahassee, I would like to congratulate my state by saying "yipee!" - Don't mess with Osceola County, that's all I got to say. Or Calhoun. Or Dixie. Or Hardee County...

#7 Or Taylor especially. :)

#8 Mainly because Calhoun, Dixie and Hardee were dry Sunday for so long... :) Taylor went triple wet the first second after Prohibiton was repealed.

#9 The measure (SB 436) passed 94-20. It had already passed the Senate and now heads to Gov. Jeb Bush,..

Too bad it's only a FL thing.
