Florida on Saturday became the most recent U.S state to allow people to carry a concealed gun without a government-issued permit. The state joins 25 others in allows for so-called "conceal carry," but those wanting to do so in Florida still must pass a background check and go through a three-day waiting period to purchase a gun. Other states that do not require a license to conceal carry include Alabama, Kansas and Oklahoma. The law went into effect July 1, after Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the legislative measure into law in April. There were no reports Saturday of problems related to the law going into effect.

I believe it's more than 26. There are some states with conditions and Vermont has been Constitutional since 1791. That's why Vermont is such a shooting gallery /s https://www.handgunlaw.us/documents/Permitless_Carry_States.pdf

Here in WV we have been constitutional carry since 2016. Interestingly, it didnt effect the criminals at all. They always did carry. It just gave honest folks a bit of an equalizer.

Our local sheriff has recorded a public service message to Floridians and visitors, saying that open carry is not legal in most Florida locations, and that there are certain places (schools, post offices, courthouses, professional sporting events, bars, etc.) where carrying a gun is not legal. It's up to the individual to familiarize himself with what he has to do to carry legally. (Most gun stores should have the 400 page book of Florida gun regulations. There are some states in which guns can be carried into bars, but Florida is not one of them. You can't even carry if you're seated adjacent to a bar in a restaurant. There are some six million paroled American felons in all fifty states. 1.5 million of them have moved to Florida. There were about 2.5 million Florida permit holders prior to this new law being passed and signed. The odds are now slightly more in our favor, but it's still a dangerous world out there.

OK, now more than half of the states recognize that "the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" means precisely that. Bearing is important. Some states require concealment, others are fine with open carry or concealed carry. I believe Florida requires concealment. It doesn't scare the sheep. It the Second Amendment isn't actually complex at all, the words are quite simple. Our founding fathers didn't write that after coming back from a target match or a hunting trip. They wrote it after spending years defeating the most powerful army and navy on the planet at that time in battle, with many of the combatants bearing their own personal firearms. Essentially all the arms at the beginning were privately owned guns. And up to and including the Civil War it was clear that "arms" was not limited, and including artillery, although cannon were somewhat uncommon to own privately because of the huge cost to purchase and the extremely expensive ammunition costs. But private militias DID own cannons, and it was legal. A number of private ships were outfitted with cannons and sailed as 'privateers' to interdict British trade during the Revolutionary War. Basically militia on the seas. They got 'letters of marque' to distinguish them from pirates in legal treatment. Unfortunately, I doubt we'll ever get that part of the 2nd Amendment back.

Good. I am all for it. A Wyoming state legislator worked hard to obtain conceal carry reciprocity with surrounding states including liberal Colorado. I can carry a gun in my car in legal compliance from Wyoming to Arizona.

Every moron gun hater seizes on the words ' well regulated militia.' Since they think history started with their birth, they run around with their hair on fire screaming we need to ban guns. Well regulated was the phrase at that time that meant well supplied. Militia was every citizen who could hoist a firearm. So it is obvious that the Federal government owes me some firearms and associated supplies. I have my own uniform. If they can't do that punish actual criminals and let the rest of the citizens alone. Also, stop the invasion. That IS your job.

Miami — A controversial Florida law which took effect Saturday no longer recognizes driver's licenses issued to undocumented immigrants from other states, among other restrictions. It is part of a sweeping immigration bill signed by Republican Florida governor and presidential candidate Ron DeSantis back in May that is prompting many to leave the state. The run-up to the new law has sparked protests by immigrant workers, from those in the tourism and hospitality industry, to those who work in agricultural fields. "We are hearing people are starting to leave," Yvette Cruz with the Farmworkers Association of Florida told CBS News of reports of migrant workers abandoning fields and construction projects.

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki claimed Republicans are recruiting Muslims against transgender people in her Sunday episode of MSNBC’s “Inside with Jen Psaki.” Psaki claimed Republicans are using former President Richard Nixon’s “Southern Strategy” method by turning Muslim Americans against transgender people and, in turn, winning their vote. “Now, decades later, the right-wing is reviving that same playbook,” Psaki said. “This time, with Muslim Americans and trans people. Hear me out here, the GOP is trying to recruit Muslim Americans, a community that makes up less than two percent of the U.S. population against another tiny marginalized group of Americans — transgender people.”

[Tweets] Curiously, there hasn’t been a lot of news coverage of this incident.

In the early 19th century, more than 100 years before electric refrigeration, an entrepreneurial Bostonian named Frederic Tudor landed on an idea: He'd cut blocks of ice from his Massachusetts lake and sell it to places where temperatures were too warm for ice to form naturally. Potential financiers thought this plan was too absurd to work. How would he ship the ice without it melting, they wondered, and who would buy it when it could be harvested for free? Ultimately Tudor not only succeeded at distributing and selling ice—his trade revolutionized how Americans thought of food. Having access to ice

Unfortunately, a new poll shows that the majority of Americans believe to some extent the unscientific climate doom propaganda that has been consistently wrong for half a century. The good news: most Americans still oppose ditching fossil fuels and gas cars altogether. Pew Research Center published the results of its new survey on June 28. While climate alarmists’ predictions have been consistently and wildly wrong for 50 years now, with one unscientific claim after another proven false, the media, government, and institutions continue pounding in the narrative — and with some apparently considerable effects: 74% of Americans say they support the country’s participation in international efforts

One thing you have to realize about progressive Democrats is they are raging hypocrites. Ok, maybe that’s a little too broad – to say they’re hypocrites is to point out that they say one thing and do the opposite. That’s true, they do that all the time (see multi-millionaire Bernie Sanders and his condemnations of capitalism), but the rest of the time, they fill with things that are so absurd, so blindly stupid that you really have to wonder if they are too, or they just know their voters are so they don’t worry about it.

Once in office, Obama brought back his old buddy into the National Security Council. Malley then became the lead negotiator for the sellout deal to legitimize Iran’s nuclear program. Despite vocal criticism from Iranian dissidents and the country’s freedom movement, Biden chose Malley as his special envoy to Iran.

In November 2020, nearly half a year after George Floyd’s murder in Minneapolis, I was subjected to a video titled “White Teachers Are a Problem” for a monthly professional development meeting for writing faculty. The video’s featured speaker, Asao Inoue, is a self-described practitioner of anti-racism. Not an obscure one, either: About a year prior, Inoue gave the Chair’s Address at a prestigious writing studies research conference and declared, “White people can perpetuate white supremacy by being present.Your body perpetuates racism.”

The first GOP debate stage might not produce the dramatic scene originally expected as a growing number of candidates could opt to skip out – while others are struggling to meet the requirements to land on stage. With just two months to go, there are 15 candidates vying for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024 – and only one-third of the field has met the requirements so far to debate in August. Longshot candidates remain at risk of not qualifying in time to reach the debate stage, while some of the frontrunners are threatening to boycott due to restrictions and rules set by the Republican National Committee (RNC).
