"...The Tampa City Council wants Scott to issue an executive order, preventing people with concealed weapons permits from carrying guns.

“We believe it is necessary and prudent to take this reasonable step to prevent a potential tragedy,” council member Lisa Montelione said in a draft letter to Scott.

Tampa city leaders have already proposed a host of banned items (lumber, hatchets, gas masks, chains and “super soaker” water cannons) — but they are prevented from outlawing concealed guns..."

Wow.

1. Aw. let them have their guns. It can't hurt.

Why isn't that beacon of freedom defending the God GIVEN right to keep and bear arms on a crowded, noisy convention floor of perpetually apoplectic anger addicts?

Won't anyone think of the children who could miss out of being orphaned?
