A proposal that would change the burden of proof in “stand your ground” self-defense cases is holding on for dear life after nearly dissipating in the House. The bill is now slated to go to the Senate Rules Committee.
If approved by the committee during a meeting Thursday, the bill (SB 344), sponsored by Sen. Rob Bradley, R-Fleming Island, would be ready to go to the full Senate when the 2016 legislative session starts in January. |

Americans have a longstanding love affair with shotguns in all their glorious shapes and sizes. Be it a single-shot, double barrel, pump or semi-automatic, folks just can't seem to get enough of the flexibility and power these guns have to offer. But the really interesting thing about the shotgun market is the number of commercial models that push the limits of standard design. |

As we wait to learn more about the background and motivation of Robert Dear, the alleged murderer of three people at a Planned Parenthood facility in Colorado, anti-choice activists and pols are rushing to distance themselves from the terrible act. Senator Ted Cruz has ingeniously (if not very credibly) sought to place Dear in the camp of the hated liberal enemy.

One translation of Proverbs 19:2 reads, "It is dangerous to have zeal without knowledge."
I've known a few zealots in my time and have observed many more, mostly activists and politicians. At best, the ones I've known were very narrow minded, focused on and driven by an agenda of loosely laced ideological issues.

More guns are needed at NFL games to keep fans safe, according to the nation's largest police union -- which recently asked the league commissioner to let certain firearms owners pack heat on Sundays.
The National Fraternal Order of Police has asked the NFL to lift its ban on fans carrying guns at games, at least for retired and off-duty law enforcement officers who hold permits to carry concealed weapons. In a letter to Commissioner Roger Goodell, FOP President Chuck Canterbury said armed cops are the best bet for stopping a terrorist attack inside a stadium.

Once the 2016 Florida legislative session begins Jan. 12, one of the first bills to hit the House floor for a vote will be a law allowing people 21 years and older to carry a gun onto Florida’s 40 public college and university campuses as long as they have a legal concealed weapons permit. We urge House members to vote no. We also encourage the judiciary committee – the bill’s next stop in the Senate – to keep the bill from advancing to a floor vote.
