Since the Parkland school shootings, police in Broward County have seized guns from private citizens more often than any county in Florida.
As of Thursday, police had obtained 34 court orders under a new law that allows guns to be taken from people considered at risk of harming themselves or others.

I will support Rick Scott for Senate as he is much closer to a Constitutionalist than Bill the HACK Nelson.
But this law needs to be carefully examined. The problem may not be with the wording of the law PER SE, but with the possible abuse of it by those in power.
Broward county leadership (or lack thereof) led to the conditions where a sick mind like Nikolas Cruz would destroy lives.
Now, the "cure" is to give the failed leadership explicit power to invade Constitutional rights.
Of course it has. Broward is run by hardcore, Leftist Democrats. They’ll seize every gun they can possibly lay their hands on.
Bad, bad, bad. This can do nothing but escalate, unless all the 2nd Amendment supporters out there just lay down and let the socialist state roll over them.
We know it ain’t easy but pos Nelson needs to go. Think he’ll lose? I’m thinkin he still has plenty of big money support. POS John Morgan for one. As far as confiscating————cart/ horse/barn door.
What are the parameters that determine who’s too unstable to own firearms? And WHO defines and utilizes those parameters? Psychiatrists? Show me a shrink and I’ll show you someone with more issues than every newsstand in Times Square, Grand Central JFK O Hare LAX and Heathrow combined. The dirty little secret, most people who either major in psych or are out in the field are there to try and figure out why they themselves are so screwed up in the head
They can only seize what they know about.
Does Florida require gun registration?
Are they forcing reviews of 4473s at the point of purchase?
Are they just doing search and seizures on “crazies”?
Maybe this just confirms what some already thought...Broward is full of crazies.
Broward Co. continues to be an embarrassment.
“”For us its not about the numbers...” said Keyla Concepcion, spokeswoman for the Broward Sheriffs Office.”
Yeah, right...because the word “all” isn’t a number.
With ultra-left activist judges all over the place across the entire nation, who didn't see this coming (apparently D. French of Natl Review cited this as a "common-sense" approach, as do a host of other traitors).
With ya 100%
(possible abuse of it by those in power)
THAT’S A GIVEN. THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT.
Start with the crazies in the usual places...council members, professors, mayors, governors, commissioners...........rtc
Next thing.......IF YOU OWN A GUN....you are naturally CRAZY.....with exceptions of course....if you’re a Democrat
I’m sure Dequantus appreciates their money-for-loot program.
Do we get to keep due process? Gosh, thanks prez. All this gun grabbing w repulcicans in charge. Never. Again.
How about just referring the law abiding gun owners to the MSD Healing Circle? Israel the anti-discipline, anti-student-safety, the anti-police-intervention-in-mass-shootings extremist, is now an anti-2nd Amendment extremist. This guy is unhinged and needs to go.

I remember in the 1980s when Handgun Control Inc and later the Brady Center had high hopes of banning guns in Florida.

Hell, the Nazis at Handgun Control tried to ban all weapon ownership during Slick Willie’s term. BTW, is that commie traitor Sarah Brady still alive?
