Hundreds of gun owning Floridians have been ordered to surrender their firearms under a new ‘Red-Flag’ law signed by the governor just three weeks after a gunman entered Stoneman Douglas High School and opened fire.

The Risk Protection Order, signed by Florida Gov. Rick Scott, essentially strips a person’s second amendment rights if a task force team and a judge believe it is warranted – meaning if the person shows any signs of being a threat to themselves or others.

According to WFTS-TV, Sgt. Jason Schmittendorf, of the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, said approximately 200 guns have been confiscated in Florida since the red-flag law was enacted. “Around 30,000 rounds of ammunition were also taken,” he stated.

The team has reportedly filed 64 risk protection petitions in court, which is the second highest number of cases in a Florida county – Broward County has the most, with 88 risk protection petitions filed since the law was ordered into effect in mid-March.

Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri – who chairs the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission – shared this sentiment when asked about his decision to devote an entire unit to carry out the new law:

“It’s a constitutional right to bear arms and when you are asking the court to deprive somebody of that right we need to make sure we are making good decisions, right decisions and the circumstances warrant it.”

According to the report, every petition filed under the order in Pinellas County has been granted by the judge, with the vast majority involving people with a previous history of mental illness.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Yup! I have the 1st. Armored Division outside my door right now, called in by the (Republican) Gov. I will hold them off as long as I can with my AR 15 and Glock 9mm, but I call on all second amendment fans to rally to my cause. Avenge meeeeeeeee.......
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots.
First they come for the pistols and rifles, then it will be the suppressors and the 50 cal. BMG's. Then it will be the select fire firearms. Where will it end?

Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong;

When I see it on the evening news, I will take appropriate action. In the interim, I fondly recall the famous words, "Some people just need killing."

So, GG, did you see the material for your original post on the evening news? Anyway, why such reliance on the evening news? It's all fake isn't it?

Yes it is. Anyway the media is still playing the same game they did when the "Assault Weapon" ban was being discussed;basically talking loosely about the issue but showing film clips the entire time of full auto fire.Even Josef Goebbels was smarter than that;unfortunately too many voting Americans are not.


Never mistake motion for action.
