Well it could be good in certain instances. Like if an attacker was trying to rape/murder someone. Then again there will be many deaths due to stupid drunken bar fights |

finally! time to buy an assault rifle and start yelling, "they're coming right for us"! |

I don't see how this is different from regular concealed carry which Florida already has. I mean, I thought the assumption was that if you're going to carry a gun, that it's to use for protection. right? dumb name for a law, though |

There is no connection between having a gun and shooting someone with it, and not having a gun and not shooting someone with it. And you'd be a fool and a communist to think so. |

Maybe they'll wipe themselves out, all of them, one by one. Like a domino effect. "Florida Governor Jeb Bush says the bill is a good anti-crime measure." He's bright. |

Indeed. |

Ah, they were running out of ways to eliminate black voters... Expect jumpy Republicans to start getting itchy trigger fingers just before the next election. And, as r40f has said, screams of "They're coming right for us!" |

the concept of 'states' is too much for my european mind. its all the same to me :\ |

man, just driving north from seattle about 40 minutes is like driving to a red state. suddenly it's all 'cowboys' and pickup trucks and country music and Bush supporters and rifle racks and coon huntin' etc... ! |

Sounds like a good plan to me. In a country like America where the majority of criminals are packing, you really don't want to have to "try to escape" before resorting to using your gun. Picture the scene; guy pulls a gun on you, you are currently legally obliged to try to escape, ie run away (and open yourself up to being shot in the back) before you can use your gun? Where's the sense in that? Sure, there are downsides to it, but I see it as a good "protective" law that favours law-abiding citizens. It could lead to some interesting court cases where someone not directly threatened uses their gun to defend another party. Eg, someone stumbles across a "rape in progress" in an an alley, shoots the rapist. They weren't acting in self defense... If the person in that example was innocent, it could lead to vigilanteism. As Anne Coulter famously said, "If everyone carried guns, Columbine wouldn't of been as bad- they'd of killed one or two kids, then someone else would of shot them." I'm generally anti-guns, but if I lived in a country where they were common, I'd certainly have one. Personally, I'd prefer it if there were no guns and we carried swords, but I'm pragmatic and accept that's never going to happen. |

I can't believe you just quoted Coulter. you've lost it, Ceri. you've gone round the bend! |
