The Florida State Supreme Court rejected a ballot proposition to ban "Assault Weapons" because the ballot summary did not accurately reflect the language of the proposition itself. The proposition makes it illegal to buy "Assault Weapons" or to transfer them to others. The summary says that existing "Assault Weapons" were exempt, but in fact existing weapons could be kept, but NOT transferred to others.
In addition to the issue the court used to reject the proposition, the advertising for the proposition states that it is intended to ban "Military Grade Assault Weapons". However the actual proposition sought to ban ALL semiauto rifles and shotguns that were capable of holding more than ten rounds in a fixed or detachable magazine. So your Ruger 10-22 would be banned because it can accept a magazine of over 10 rounds. Your Marlin 60 tube fed 22 would be banned, etc.
