Should be easy to beat depending on the information he gave the police.
If you have the gun in a case then its not concealed. Only if you have the gun on your person is it considered concealed.
For example you can have a gun in the closed glove box or in a zippered case under the seat.
Politics is why this guy is charged.
makes you kinda wonder who is putting the pressure on the court.
Impeach the commie judge and give him 24 hours to leave America and sail for North Korea.
BULLCRAP!
This is straight up judicial incompetence! Florida’s concealed carry laws are irrelevant here. The story says he was bicycling while armed. Florida law states you may carry a weapon concealed “by means of private conveyence” without any need for a permit. The law makes no distinction between a pick-up truck, and a skateboard. Furthermore, the right to carry a weapon in your vehicle LONG predates any laws relating to CCW permit.
The only limitation to the above statute is the weapon can not be “immediately accessable,” as in sitting on the seat next to you.
The judge is doubling down to save face.
I am a Monroe County resident, and I’d like to be on the jury.
;-)
Why don’t these bastard attorneys and prosecutors and judges go find a REAL CRIMINAL to prosecute???
Heads up to all residents in CCW states. Never let a law get passed which makes simply carrying a weapon without a CCW permit a felony. At most, carrying without the permit with no concurrent offense or no legal disability for possession should only be a minor misdemeanor punishable only by a low dollar amount fine. Anything else and a miscarriage of justice such as the above will occur.
He should be punished for taking a .32 to a gun fight.
;O)
>>that while Correa legally fired a .32-caliber handgun at an attacker, “that does not decriminalize the prior action” of carrying the weapon while riding his bicycle through the community.<<
How can one legally do something with an object he can’t legally possess? Smoking marijuana is legal, but possessing it isn’t?
Open carry. On “CCW,” reserve our 2nd Amendment right exclusively for cronies of sheriffs, local administrators and the like, then you’ll lose it for yourselves, too, in the near future. And if you can’t see the likely economic collapse ahead along with the possibilities to follow that event, think again. Everyone who hasn’t recently been convicted of any violent crime and isn’t presently and obviously a threat to any other innocent person has that 2nd Amendment right.
Open carry, until every cowardly snob gets accustomed to it.
