Gun Rights Win in Florida: State Law Will Soon End Local Firearms Restrictions

Florida has decided to finally protect the 2nd Amendment at the state level and eliminate onerous restrictions that many municipalities and communities have enacted against gun rights.Gun Rights Win in Florida: State Law Will End Local Restrictions

Starting October 1st, any public official who passes or enforces gun regulations below the state level faces  a $5,000 personal fine and could even be removed from office by the governor for enacting or enforcing local gun laws.

While Florida has had a law on its books since 1987 that makes it illegal to pass gun regulations beyond state statutes, there was no enforcement mechanism in place. As a result, towns and cities have created ordinances at will. In the process, many of them have criminalized otherwise completely law-abiding citizens who unintentionally ran afoul of arbitrary, localized gun rules.

But thanks to the law recently signed by Governor Rick Scott, that’s all about to change in the Sunshine State.

Called the Penalties for Violating Firearms Preemption Law, the new state forces the repeal of any and all regulations, policies, and ordinances that violate the firearms preemption law of 1987. Its passage has already had an impact as assorted town and county bureaucrats are scrambling to come into compliance by the October 1 deadline. The Orlando Sentinel reported on the changes now underway that:

“Orange County employees have started removing ‘no firearms’ signs at county parks, and soon they’ll probably black out the same words on brochures. In Groveland, leaders recently erased from the books an ordinance that banned firing a gun into the air….in Boca Raton, the “no guns allowed” sign has come down at City Hall. In Lake County, commissioners recently deleted a provision in an ordinance that would have banned firearms on public lands, including its parks.”

The new law will make for consistent, state-wide rules for guns, including those with concealed carry permits. It will not affect rules already in place at the state level for firearms, the Orlando Sentinel points out, which include making it illegal to ‘fire into buildings, cars, across streets and in public places, except for self-defense.‘ The new law won’t really expand gun rights so much as it will greatly clarify legal firearms possession, transport, and use- eliminating inevitable confusion for law enforcement and citizens alike.

Gun Rights Win in Florida: State Law Will End Local Restrictions

Governor Scott

What is certain is this- Governor Rick Scott has sent a clear message that the right to bear arms enshrined in the 2nd amendment to the Constitution is not a parking regulation or a picnic permit to be issued, denied, or changed at the whim of any middling bureaucrat.

On top of that, the 6000% increase in aluminum baseball bat sales in the U.K. this week due to the shocking riots there may have refocused Floridians on their right to protect their persons and property as enshrined in our Bill of Rights, regardless of what any town or country says.

      Yep. State pre-emption enforcement needs teeth of cops/politicians simply ignore it. If you don‘t give it teeth you don’t get state pre-emption.

      In Ohio a locality/political body/police department can easily be sued for violating state pre-emption, and has to cover your legal fees as well. It didn’t take long for most places to clean up their act once organized human rights groups started suing police departments and cities. The last holdout was Cleveland, which just lost it’s “grand case” trying to re-establish local ordinances.

      I’m happy for Florida gun owners and human rights enforcers. Good on them!

      For those who criticize the states that permit concealed and unconcealed firearms to be carried by it’s citizens should know it does reduce violent crime. When citizens have the liberty to execize their 2nd amendment right to arm and protect themselves, they become “deterrents” and not “perpetrators” of cimes that are committed by firearms. Firearm legislation benefits the criminals and not the average citizens.

      People need to understand that these laws and local ordnances don’t regulate “guns”, they regulate gun owners, since guns are inanimate objects and can’t do anything, legal or illegal. That‘s why the Second Amendment addresses the rights of citizens to bear arms and doesn’t say anything about the weapons themselves. Our Founding Fathers understood that words have meaning. The entire Constitution is based upon the principle of Subsidiarity, which simply means that government should not do for citizens those things citizens are able to do for themselves or by free association with other citizens. Having been guaranteed the right to bear arms, citizens have an obligation to regulate their own management of those weapons and to do so responsibly.

      Thank God for a TRULY conservatiove Governor. We could never have expected the same from old Jeb, a rino in conservative clothing.

      Local officials do so many wrong things it is absolutely vital to have laws on the books making their actions open to criminal prosecution. It’s the only way to keep them in line and under control.

      We had 5 county officials in my area caught in an FBI sting accepting bribes, one of which was a commissioner for 30 years, always raising taxes and promoting more governmental control over the people.

      This kind of criminality is rife throughout local politics and we should applaud any efforts by the legislatures to bring it under control.

      @ SWAMPY, Florida state law does not allow guns in bars and that STATE law doesn’t change As far as cities parks goes, where do you think many muggings, child abduction and rapes take place? Just because children are around doesn‘t mean law abiding citizens shouldn’t be allowed to have guns. You fruitloops always forget, criminals don’t care about gun laws.

      addie, wow, name calling, by all means our parks should really be places so scary people shouldn’t go in them unarmed. I used take my gun when I am going to drop off the deposit bag on a Saturday night when there was 20K in cash in it, and my choice was go some where I felt a little unsafe, or keep 20K in cash in my home all weekend. I’m sure not going to go in, or allow my family to go in a park that I feel so unsafe in, that I won’t go unarmed. Mississippi just changed their law, to allow people to take guns in malls, bars, restaurants and a whole list of other private places even if the owners don’t want guns in their shops. As someone who has owned several bars, it worries the heck out of me, Alcohol and guns don’t mix, I have had dozens of incidents where drunks with concealed weapons did some stupid things in my bars, that should have never happened. I always had at least one armed off duty police officer in my places if they were open for business, so there was never a time that any customer needed a gun to protect themselves.

I betcha the kids in Virginia Tech felt safe before the shooter, I betcha ya the soldiers in Ft Hood felt safe before the shooter, I betcha the people at several McDonalds felt safe before the gang beating started or the shootings. I bet many women who were raped in parks felt safe, I bet many parents who’s children were abducted at a park felt the park was safe. Just because a local park “feels safe” doesn‘t mean a situation can’t arise, ESPECIALLY in this ECONOMY. Law abiding people don;t carry guns because they don’t feel safe or they are looking for something, they carry them because they know this ISN’T a perfect world and cops only exist to CLEAN-UP the mess after YOU ARE DEAD. People who go around life thinking “Oh, this is safe, it will never happen to me” are ignorant.

      The thing that gets me is that guns were getting into places even with the regulations. It wasn’t law abiding citizens who was breaking this law but criminals. Laws that hinder the rights of the citizen will always bring about criminal behavior. To say that controlling guns is the answer is to hide one’s head in the sand so to speak.

      While we‘re on the topic of IQ’s and what not, can you tell me where the money/funding comes from for those gov’t jobs? Those tax dollars could not be put to better use in the private sector, creating jobs that actually create goods and services? Perhaps you should be taking some economics courses before debating one’s IQ. The problem with Krugman’s regurgitated Keynsian/Ponsi scheme, is that it ignores that one glaring fact; but just like you, those who follow the Keynsian model, are so Hell bent on their own twisted ideology of STEALING the fruits of others’ labor to redistribute it to those who you deem are more deserving, that you’re incapable of seeing the proverbial “forest from the trees”. The first rule of survival for any parasite, is to not kill the host. The government, instead of creating a symbiotic relationship, has created a lethal parasitic relationship….destroying job creation and entrepreneurship.

      If Keynsian-style stimuli packages work, then why is Japan still in their “Lost Decade” (more like lost generation). I know, I know, your answer is “The underclass being exploited by the rich.” Well, try again. Your cute, freshman-style, Socialism is as cliche as your 80 year old DNC talking points.

      so now pulling a gun on an unarmed person who says something you might not like is a good idea? With a hand gun comes GREAT responsibility. Brandishing is against the law in most places, probably all for that matter. Injuring someone with a gun often comes with immeasurable cost legally and financially, to the point of wiping out ones future completely when an attorney get done. People who have nothing to lose are the worst possibility to run into. Anyone who thinks a gun is a quick fix to a problem had best be sure they are about to lose everything worth having.

      It’s YOUR attitude that enables the Liberals to go forward with their Socialist agenda. Thanx for nothing, Komrad.
      For the adults info, I have had a CCW in Alabama since 1976. I carry EVERY DAY. Only my closest friends and family even know it.
      In all that time, I have only pulled my firearm ONCE. In 2004, I was accosted by four young blacks in a mall parking lot. In broad daylight.
      I park my vehicles far from the entrance of any shopping establishment to keep the dings down. Four young blacks came up on me right when I had opened my car door. They told me to give them the keys and my wallet or they were going to kill me. I pulled my weapon, a Taurus PT-145 45acp. Two of the young men looked uncomfortable and started to edge away until one of the men said” Do you really think you can all of us before we get you?” He was grinning when he said it. I just grinned back and said “You may not be 1st, but you CAN be next”. Just that quick, they scattered like cockroaches. Obviously, they knew I was serious.
      I didn’t WANT to kill them, but if even one had made a move for me, or a pocket, it would have been REAL messy. I think that, yes, I could have gotten all of them. 10 in the mag, and one in the chamber. And I go to the range 1-2 times a month.
      Point?
      Anyone that thinks that it will never happen to them is an idiot. And that I had it when I needed it, for the 1st time in 28 years, made the whole hassle of carrying worth while.
      I survived.

      support who you want, that’s your business.
      but, I believe your are handing out bad info for others to make a decision.
      FACT: Perry is an active member of the Bilderberg Group. He attended the last meeting earlier this year. If you don’t understand what that means, look it up. The Bush’s are also active members.
      FACT: Perry is a supporter of the Progressive idea of a North American Union and the building block is the SPP. The SPP website in the USA has been removed because of the negative interest, but is still active as the SPP in Canada. This is an offshoot of the One World Order advocated by the Bilderberg Group. And the reason Perry is STILL PRIVATELY advocating the Trans Highway. He just said he isn’t, HE LIED! Do some research and you’ll see that the project is taking in private money now, not taxpayer money, but it is STILL alive and well!
      And that is only the beginning of the behind closed doors deals that Perry is embroiled in. And it’s FACT, not a conspiracy.
      And like the Bush’s, Perry IS an Amnesty hound. Look at his record on real enforcement of Immigration Laws and you’ll quickly realize what he is all about.
      In my opinion, Perry IS a RINO. And I won’t support him.

      Yea, ILL is definately not one of the 35. Watch yourself, I think they view legal gun owners as the enemy.

      Neither is New Jersey. Just ask the guy that thought he was doing everything right. Last time I heard he was going to jail.

      Sometimes Mickey needs to pack a gun too. The way some people treat the characters at Disney can be a shame. Now when Mickey needs a bathroom break or to cool off because the heat index is way over 100 and parents tug at him, he can pack some iron and take off. “Have a magical day.”

      In the state of Florida, “no weapons” signs do NOT have the force of law. You may absolutely carry legally in Disneyworld, Target, 7-11, or wherever else you happen to see such a sign. The only places you cannot legally carry in Florida or those places listed in the CWL statute.

      That said, if you are caught carrying they have every right to ask you to leave. If you do not leave, you can be charged with armed trespass. Generally, it is a good rule of the thumb to leave private property when requested anyway. ;)

      We just went to Disney and Universal a couple weeks back, and they don’t have metal detectors or anything like that. They glance through purses/bags and will check your pockets if you look suspicious (I only saw one person get their pockets checked). Wouldn’t carry if you are planning on riding roller coasters though.

      As for the article, THANK YOU Buckley (the awesome lawyer who got this ball rolling), the NRA, and Gov. Scott! Love it!

      I was at Disney last month with my .45 proudly posted on my hip. The looks we was getting from the people getting their bags rifled by the “security” folks was priceless. It’s like, “wait a minute, you’re digging through me stuff looking for a toe nail clipper, meanwhile that dude waltzes in with wearing a colt!” Sort of makes those security folks obsolete, don’t it. If enough of us would open carry at Disney they wouldn’t need no security. Just like if enough of us open carry around town, we wouldn’t need no cops.

      Just when you leave New York plz leave any liberal friends you have behind. Unfortunately we have the problem for everyone conservative new yorker we get 5 liberal and boy are they trying to turn us into another New York. I can’t believe the number of New York transplants that want a state tax, higher property taxes etc to pay for all these programs and the reason they left New York was to get out of paying higher taxes. Yet they continue to vote the same way they did up North and expect a different outcome down here.
      I could just go on but you get jist: leave your liberal friends behind because there isn’t to many other states I like.

    I think I really like this guy. From the 1 news story I’ve listened to and this article, he is awesome. Anyone know how he his policies are doing?? Less restrictions on businesses, etc.? He should think about running for president. I’d love to know what policies he has been able to put through and if businesses are responding. Anyone know??

      His low approval rating is due to the takers backlash, and the liberal media (orlando sentinal is at the top) encourages them. The fact is, at this point, he has doing what he said he would. Has a lot of work left to get jobs growth going, but I think he will make good on this promise, or at least create the climate to lure business here. Remember, this is the gov who refused the high speed train debacle money, so he is pushing back on the feds. Just got my CCW, simple process, and now carrying will be less confusing. Rick Scott will get reelected, count on it.

      I work for the state and most of the employees here hate him. That‘s because he’s cutting the budget just like he promised. This could be viewed as a Tea Party victory. It‘s because of a more conservative legislature that this bill even made it to Rick Scott’s desk. I say he’s doing a fine job and I too, am glad I voted for him.

      He just put more restrictions on unemployment too, no more phone ins, you have to provide proof you contacted 5 potential employers a week. He also implemented drug testing for welfare. Oh, and did I mention he’s not drawing a salary either. As a Florida resident, I am very happy with him but I can see how the liberals hate him.
