Gun Rights Win in Florida: State Law Will Soon End Local Firearms RestrictionsPosted on August 15, 2011 at 6:02am by Buck Sexton 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. 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... www.theblaze.com/stories/gun-rights-win-in-florida-state-law-will-soon-end-local-firearms-restrictions/

Yea...that chapped the ass of a few counties here...and made me smile. We went through the same phase here a number of years ago, but Georgia Carry filed a lot of lawsuits. Later on, just the threat of a similar lawsuit, brought the"over-zealous" local bureaucrats into line. Sorta been leveling things a bit, One of the next big pushes will be for "Constitutional Carry" Georgia has come far, but there is still a long way to go to remove all "infringements". Although the pace seems painfully slow, I think we are still holding more active Pro-2A events than any other state. The Restore the Constitution Rallies continue to be a focus here... Speaking of that, Come on now, where are the other states? I'm sure you have onerous laws that need to be rolled back... Git 'er Done! Although the RTC movement is a more active Pro-2A group, we as a whole, must continue to chip away at the unconstitutional laws that choke our freedoms. We did not get here in one fell swoop and we will not dig out of it quickly. A nibble here... a big bite there... one inch at a time.

I was a member of Georgia Carry when I lived up in Georgia. An absolutely GREAT bunch of guys and gals. I was there on the Capitol steps on more than one occasion.

Cool, Yeah I've been happy with their performance, a lot of the RTC members are also GA Carry members, which doesn't hurt either movement. The State 2A groups are becoming critical to this fight, look around the country it is not large groups like the GOA, SAF and the NRA repealing the onerous laws it is Local/state groups putting the teeth back in the 2A... keep it coming.
