    If you read this in time, please email the Senators on the Florida Military Affairs Committee for a discussion on SB-296 before Tuesday March 25 at 200pm. This is a bill to keep YOU from being charged with a crime and you firearms from being confiscated should you choose to carry a firearm with you when you are ORDERED TO EVACUATE your home by the governor due to a DECLARED EMERGENCY. Imagine the government NOT wanting you to take your means of protection with you when you "leave your castle." Boy, the CRAP with which we have to put up is ASTOUNDING !! Please email these senators on the Military Affairs Committee and put in the subject of your email "Support SB-296." I hope you read this in time.

    I understand, but for the many who don't have concealed permits, they shouldn't be charged if they are carrying properly in their vehicle to protect themselves. This is just what the LEO's with the power complex would love to seize upon in order to "get another gun 'off the street' ". This type of charge shouldn't exist in the first place. Just because one is "ordered to evacuate" shouldn't bring about special circumstances of whether you can carry a firearm in your vehicle, such as the mayor and sheriff of New Orleans "got away with" after Hurricane Katrina where "No one can have firearms except for law enforcement." And that means if we even have to use five or six big guys to wrestle away a rimfire revolver away from a little old granny and nearly break her arm in order to make her "safe."
