I do always vote every election. The deciding issue why I won't vote for DeSantis? He wants to pass permitless open carry of guns. That is a policy that could potentially effect my day to day life.

you know.. I'm an Independent, but I hate this attitude. You rely on other people carrying the tax burdens in blue states but you want to avail yourself of their generous blue state policies because you have the means to go to a blue state if you need to.

Thank goodness there are blue states with their high taxes and reasonable abortion laws, right? While you get to enjoy your low tax state.

So you are ok with a teen from Southern FL who was raped by their neighbor having to marshall the money and support to travel to probably Maryland to get an abortion. That's ok with you?

Why would they need to leave the state of florida? Abortion is legal up to 15 weeks and 6 days in Florida.

Cuz teens who are raped and teens in general often don’t know what is happening with their bodies or are afraid or ashamed to admit it. Lots of reasons. Would you have a mother of 2 who has a nonviable fetus leave her family to travel to Maryland to have an abortion? You’re not pro life, you are pro you.

Right. But the number of teens who are raped AND get pregnant AND don’t find out until after 15 weeks AND want to abort is incredibly small. This is why most people are more concerned with the economy.

My sister is in law enforcement in Florida and permitted carry would absolutely make her job harder. It's nuts how they claim to be tough on crime but then do things that make life harder for LEOs.

Sorry eliminating permitted carry. Since they passed this in Texas LEOs have said people reach for guns instead of fistfighting. And a lot easier for a bystander to be harmed by a stray bullet than a stray fist.
