We start with good news for anyone who might commit a murder in Florida: The Legislature is advancing a bill that could help you get away with it!
Now, that might seem like a bad idea to most people. It does to prosecutors and victims' advocates.
But when prosecutors such as Seminole County State Attorney Phil Archer objected to the NRA-backed proposal to make convictions tougher, NRA lobbyist Marion Hammer responded by calling them "anti-gun." |

| That law is there to provide protections for law abiding people, not criminals! Read: you are innocent UNTIL proven guilty, what in that statement do you NOT understand????! |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
