Jeluvsk 58 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I wonder if this applies to NFA items as well? I know in Tampa the CLEO will not signoff on needed paperwork to complete a transfer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fauxknight 30 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Awesome, one set of laws make a lot more sense. I mean, learning the laws state by state is one thing, but then if that one state has 80 other sets of laws for each county you just can't expect even a resident of the state to be able to keep up with them.

Koljec 37 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 "In Groveland, leaders recently erased from the books an ordinance that banned firing a gun into the air" Pretty sure state statute still addresses this, but shooting into the air is pretty f'ing stupid.

LeoPTY 24 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 This is great to hear. I know that this has been in the works for a long time. Not too sure what the municipal codes looked like for Hillsborough County, but now won't have to worry so much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matthew Hopkins 1,065 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) "makes it illegal to pass gun regulations beyond state statutes, there was no enforcement mechanism in place. As a result, towns and cities have created ordinances at will. In the process" ohio legislators did the same thing in 06. passed a law barring local cities from passes more strict laws then the state. and guess what happened? the same thing that is going to happen in Fl., the cities sued the state claiming the state is interfering in "home rule", as a result everything was staus que till the outcome of the court decision. fast forward to dec 2010, the ohio SC ruled against the cities. while it's a victory, it took a additional 5+ years. so don't think that the cities in Fl. are just going to role over and play dead, look for the cities to file a law suit, because it's coming. so don't break open the chamgaign bottle and start celebrating, it ain't over yet, that is just a mole hill, now you gotta climb the mountain. and even then the SC could side with the cities, you just don't know. http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2010/12/ohio_supremes_uphold_state_law.html Edited August 16, 2011 by Matthew Hopkins Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaigaNoobie 66 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I think the difference is that we already had pre-emption but some places were ignoring it. Now they can be fined $5,000 and ejected from office for violating the pre-emption already on the books. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
belt fed frog 56 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 After Katrina FL was one of the only states to pass a law making any attempt to collect guns during/under a state of Emergency declaration a Crime to even attempt !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaigaNoobie 66 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) Isn't it a federal offense now to confiscate firearms under an Emergency Declaration? Yes - (42 U.S.C. 5207) I still think it should be classified as treason, and punished accordingly. Edited August 16, 2011 by SN13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uzitiger 193 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I visited Florida last month and saw a lot of gun shops there and felt good about traveling to a pro gun state. I'm glad to hear Florida is leading the way in gun rights again. Florida was one of the first states to allow concealed carry which reduced crime and made criminals wonder if their intended victims are armed even if they're out of state. Ohio passed a similar law to stop some anti gun communities from trampling our Second Amendment. Ohio's constitution also has a Bill of Rights and a Second Amendment similar to the federal one.

I know in Tampa the CLEO will not signoff on needed paperwork to complete a transfer. Fuck that ugly old bag.... start a trust. BTW I am extremely proud to have voted for Rick Scott. In the beginning there were a few little things that had me thinking he was going in the wrong direction, but have been impressed with what he has done since settling in.

I know in Tampa the CLEO will not signoff on needed paperwork to complete a transfer. My guess would be no, it won't change anything. That's a federal law. I don't think Tampa is alone in denying the signature. its pretty standard practice with all local LEO. A trust is the only way to go from what I understand.
