Let’s hope it happens this time, but another delay is highly possible given the weak state of legislative leadership in Florida.
I’m especially interested in seeing open carry legalized in Florida, as I know The Armed Fisherman is. If we can get open carry, it won’t be necessary any longer to do stuff like this.
It’s my understanding that constitutional carry includes open carry, but if they don’t formulate the law this way, that is, if they formulate a bill that only removes the permitting scheme, this fight will have to continue.

One of the minor differences between the Republican and Democrat parties is that Republicans say they are going to do things their constituents want and Democrats do what their constituents want.
