Florida – -(AmmoLand.com)- On Monday, 1/13/20, it happened again. Senate President Bill Galvano picked a fight with Floridians who believe in the constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms. It is well known — even by the media — that in 2018 Bill Galvano orchestrated the creation and passage of the “Parkland Gun Control Bill.” And, of course, it didn't stop gun crime or criminals. It only took away the rights of law-abiding people.

So now, he's back for more gun control and it appears likely that Bloomberg's $500,000.00 “donation” to Senate President Bill Galvano is behind yet another Galvano gun control bill. — SB-7028 — an admitted priority of Galvano.

All but one of the Republican Senators on the Senate Infrastructure and Security Committee put Galvano's wishes ahead of principle, the Constitution, their Oath of Office and YOU, their constituents and voted for a gun control bill.

FORGET that some of them were not truthful with NRA and Unified Sportsmen of Florida about supporting the Second Amendment. REMEMBER, they KNOW gun control doesn't work. They know that only law-abiding people obey the law and criminals don't care what the law says.

When RINOs (Republican In Name Only) vote like Anti-gun Democrats, one has to wonder how many real Republicans are left in the Florida Senate.

If Senate Republicans, who vote for gun control, don't care about compromising their own integrity, you have to wonder if they care about what they are doing to the character the Republican Party?

Michael Bloomberg is no friend to Republicans! He's running in the Democratic Primary for President of the US on an anti-gun platform. Why are Senate Republicans doing his bidding?

You can ask them:

***IMPORTANT NEW DEVELOPMENT***

The media is now reporting that House Speaker Jose Oliva and Governor Ron DeSantis are pushing back against this massive gun control bill. Speaker Oliva and Governor DeSantis are to be commended for working to protect Second Amendment rights. They KNOW gun control doesn't stop crime or criminals.

BACKGROUND:

SB-7028 by the Committee on Infrastructure & Security is a gun control bill. Among other things, it contains a massive two-pronged Universal Background Check system that is the worst I have ever seen.

It is clearly meant to simply ban all private sales of firearms through red tape and fear.

This bill contains so much red tape and nonsense that there is almost no way a law-abiding person could comply.

The only thing we know for sure is that this bill will only stop law-abiding people from exercising a constitutional right and it will be completely ignored by criminals.

Voting in favor of this bill is like a doctor giving a patient an antibiotic for a virus. The doctor knows an antibiotic won’t cure the illness but at least he can make people think he’s “doing something.”

Supporting a bill so you can say you’re doing something is “political eyewash.”

This bill is nothing less than GUN CONTROL ON STEROIDS.

Any person of SOUND MIND knows that only law-abiding people obey the law and that criminals don’t care what the law says.

Make no mistake, 4 Senators who claim to be Republicans voted for massive gun control: Not to uphold their oath of office; not to protect and defend the Constitution; not to represent the rights of law-abiding gun owners in their districts.

What amazes me is that folks still think Republicans are 'on our side'. They're statists. Full Stop. End story.

Republicans believe that business should fuel the state...Democrats believe that the state should dictate to the people...at the end of the day, they both believe the state is supreme.

No modern politician is on the side of the citizen. It’s all about getting reelected and continually getting rich. It doesn’t matter what they label themselves politically, they’re all out for their own interests.

Ok so 100% of the Democrats vote for gun control and 5% of the Republicans do, and you say there’s no difference?

Nope, they’re all the same. They only do what is beneficial to themselves or the last person to write them the biggest check.
They do not care about the average American.

Weren't you the one who said that the Democrats never disappoint you or let you down (or something to that effect) because you know exactly what they're going to do, whereas the Republicans often times disappoint?

A very true statement and an example of why I refuse to join or declare myself a member of that forsaken party.
 
Once again we see that globalists can subvert our constitutional republic and simply override the people with their money. VA is experiencing this right now with the massive gun control push on the back of election victories financed by Bloomberg (and on the back of globalist supported demographic changes - non-whites vote Democrat).

Globalists like Bloomberg and Soros ARE gun control in this country. Without them, gun control would be a fringe movement.

Legislation would require background checks and a three-day waiting period for firearms sold “on property to which the public has the right of access,” such as “a flea market, a gun show, or a firearm exhibit.”

The measure would also mandate that guns be securely stored in households and other places where minors under age 18 — up from the current threshold of 16 — could have access to the weapons.

The bill also would create a new section of law that would require guns to be stored to prevent access “by a person of unsound mind.”

And the proposal would impose new requirements for private gun sales. Under the measure, individuals who sell guns to other people would be required to fill out a form that would include the name, date of birth and identification information of the purchaser. The affidavit, which would include background questions aimed at ensuring the purchaser is eligible to buy a gun, would have to be notarized.

the article implied acquiring guns would be “near impossible” by law abiding citizens. am I missing something?

don’t get me wrong, this is all nuisance politics that won’t solve a single problem and only create more headache and convolution for Gun owners, butttt hyperbolic responses by author like one I mentioned result in general public being turned off. That type of “reporting” sounds “Gun nutty”, disproportionate and unmeasured, which reflects on us all.

Far more useful would be writers breaking down the challenges and benefits (or lack thereof) for given proposals.

Is anyone surprised that a $500,000 donation would buy a politician's vote on a bill?

I guess maybe i don't live the kind of indebted life where i can sacrifice my ability to feel good about myself for 500k.
don't get me wrong, I work every day, extra hours without pay... but we're doing okay here under my roof. I don't think I could be bought for less than a couple million.

Pardon the pragmatic cynicism, but if I knew that I could buy their vote for $500,000, and all we need are 51 votes in the Senate, then the $25,500,000 it would take to keep the Second Amendment safe would be quite a bargain.

You make it seem like this guy, and other repubs are FOR GUNS but when given money they vote AGAINST them... maybe they never were for guns and just joined the party for other reasons. Wild idea - guns arent the only issue with political groups.

Dont get it twisted that all republicans are pro-gun.
The extra half a mil just made it that much easier to give the nod to a bill or two
