This Democrat Caught Florida Republicans Holding A Public Meeting To Relax State Gun Laws Today

Chairman Juan Cuba caught GOP legislators planning a hearing for 1pm tomorrow in Tallahassee, Florida’s capitol, which includes a 98-page thick bill about agriculture (SB 740) which weakens the state’s gun laws considerably.

And shortening/creating a deadline for approval regardless of completed background check, verification, etc.

90 days hits, must approve.

Under the guise of "Expedience" no doubt.

5. So Putin's money going to the NRA is having an affect

Right after a mass murder due to excessive weapons and ammunition floating around, a legislative body is secretly trying to make more weapons and ammo available.

No one but Putin would find that to be a good thing.
