All it would mean is that your right to carry concealed is not protected.

But isn't that the situation I'm in today? So it could stay the same. What have I got to lose? Dead Corpse, the RKBA doesn't get any federal protection in practice right now. I addressed this reply to you as well because I have the same two questions in response to your post.

Dead Corpse, the RKBA doesn't get any federal protection in practice right now.

Right. Because of a legal fiction. One Bobby actually approves of. The SCOTUS has a chance to peal back 70 years of bad juris dictum and stare decisis to restore to us our Right.

If they don't, then for many of us... there is only one recourse left. The original Right of self defense... against an out of control government.

"But isn't that the situation I'm in today?"

Article I, § 8(a) of the Florida Constitution provides: "[t]he right of the people to keep and bear arms in defense of themselves and of the lawful authority of the state shall not be infringed, except that the manner of bearing arms may be regulated by law."

Your right to carry concealed is protected by the State of Florida today. If the U.S. Supreme Court declares that "to bear arms" does not protect concealed carry, the Florida State legislature and the Florida State Supreme Court may revisit that same provision in the Florida State Constitution. They may come to the same conclusion as the highest court in the land. Hey, they may not.

That's all I'm saying. If you're not bothered by that, fine. I am.
