Problem that doesn't exist

Willie Meggs, who was president of the Florida Prosecuting Attorneys Association when the Legislature considered the bill this spring, said it solves a problem that doesn't exist.

"We may not have any problems with it and if we don't, that's fine," said Meggs, the state attorney for Leon County. "But what I worry about, and I don't know if it will come to fruition, is that people who should be prosecuted will have a defense for using force when they didn't need to."


If the problem does not exist then they should not have a problem with the law.
 
Been off the board for a while....

Just couldn't resist posting this rediculous poster I found on Yahoo. Nevermind, I can't get the attachment to work. :banghead: It's a shame what the Brady Bunch will try to put in people's heads. Basically scaring the tourists and hurting that industry. Sadly, it doesn't do anything to keep people from wanting to move to our beautiful Sunshine State! :cuss: The growth here is incredible and there's no end in sight.
 
Tell you what, Lone Gunman, why don't you direct your question to the OP? I've tried to be of assistance and you've responded by being a horse's patuty.
 
csmkersh,

Sorry I wasn't trying to be a horse's patuty. I just wanted to know the name of the newspaper that published the headline that you quoted.

If you would give me the name of the paper, I would write them a letter to the editor and complain.

But now I am confused. I can find references made to "OK Corral" being used by anti-gun people, but I can't find where a newspaper used that in a headline. I am not trying to be difficult, I just want to sort fact from fiction on this issue.

What is the OP?
 
IMHO this furor will accomplish two things;

It lets the hotheads know to keep their mouth shut and hands down when they really feel like belting someone.

After 2 years and the crime and death by firearm rate goes down even more, maybe people will realize it is a good law.

And I was probably over reacting. Sorry.

I didn't have any luck either with that exact headline. That's the reason I pointed you back to the Original Poster/OP. He can at least provide the name of his hometown paper.

"Some people are alive simply because its illegal to kill them"
