Florida lawmakers send DeSantis 'momentous' bill that would make majority of US states 'constitutional carry'
The Florida Senate approved a constitutional carry bill and sent it to Gov. Ron DeSantis. If signed, Florida will tip the U.S. into becoming a constitutional carry-majority nation.

While it's a good step, it is still flawed as it only allows concealed.
This opens the door for cops to f*** with you for the inadvertent coat flip exposing a firearm. Yes, FL law does allow for accidental exposure, but that is only after the cops f*** with you.
FL needs to unf*** themselves and pass real CC.

The southeastern states are rabidly anti 2A.
On the plus side, NC finally got rid of their purchase permits this week.
FL is definatly more progun than not, but I think taking the leap to open carry would have low support here. I'd be real concerned about getting dangerous attention from the police here.
A state with waiting periods to buy is not a pro gun state.
FL's refusal to allow people to carry firearms only puts their citizens at risk. Not from the criminals, but from the cops.

So im assuming this is gonna make my FL non-resident permit useless as im sure every state that recognized it will now revoke reciprocity..

Is "suits that fit" a forgotten concept?

I agree. Too many folks from MA, NY & NJ moved there and would flip out seeing a gun.
Also agree. IIRC, police down there pull people out of cars for speeding, something we were taught in MA police academies NOT to do!
Given the climate, I suspect few wear suits on a regular basis in FL.
I never understood the states that want to pull people out of the car right off the bat. I always felt it was better to contain them in their vehicle. The same with making people sign tickets, just absurd.

It's a start. TX went from no carry, to concealed carry, to open carry, to Constitutional Carry over several years. FL will get there after much Sturm und Drang. Much like most other states.

I for one would never open carry a sidearm.

Please stop trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Take the win...it's a big deal.
Quit seeing this from a anti state's perspective and start seeing it from a 2A shall not be infringed perspective.
I've been following the bill elsewhere since pretty much the beginning.
Nobody is saying this isn't a win.
Winning doesn't make this bill any less shitty.
The lack of true constitutional carry will be weaponized by FL police who decide to harass someone for printing and inadvertent exposure.
Those FL residents who decide to use permitless concealed carry will now be subject to pistol waiting periods that their permit (which required training and money) bypassed.
Basically FL gun owners got a kiss from their cousin and that's about it. At least it was a girl cousin.
Or perhaps it is living in the real world and discussing these things with people outside of New England that offers someone a different perspective.
