What we Floridians for Open Carry are upset about, is how this bill was supposed to be about OC, campus carry for our young adults and the deletion of current statute, to conform with national law regarding firearms purchases made out of state.
What we got, was a diluted and downright worthless bill that only accomplished something that was unenforcable, anyway, regarding the latter.
But as it reads, now, another part of the law that was not prosecutable, i.e. "printing and inadvertent exposure", has very vague language that can be used against us, by an over-zealous cop or state's attorney.
The word, "brief", has us concerned. As it could mean anything from a brief glance, to a brief stint in the military.
Highly subjective, and has nothing to do with open or campus carry.
It was a ruse from the beginning, IMO, and the wording and hype was only designed to gain leverage so that a "compromise" could be reached, giving the appearance of attempting to do the will of their constituency, whilst not upsetting their counterparts across the aisle.
A complete waste of time, taxpayer's dollars and oxygen, in and around the Tallahassee area, as far as I'm concerned.
