With Florida mayors facing budget cut backs due to the recent property tax roll backs, now seems like an especially poor time to advocate curtailing their constituent’s constitutional freedom to keep and bear arms. Florida residents have overwhelmingly supported the “shall-issue” concealed carry law, the Castle Doctrine, and now the roll back of the local authority’s ability to tax property owners.
It would seem to the casual observer that the citizens of Florida are reigning in the often unchecked power and spending of local officials. Now, these 20 Florida mayors are the latest to have joined New York City Mayor Bloomberg’s quest to confiscate guns from all Americans.
Interestingly, a check of the web sites of some of these mayors, such as Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio, Tarpon Spring Mayor Beverly Bellris, and Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer don’t list their new affiliation with Bloomberg. Maybe the voters of these cities need to let them know what they think. If they get enough calls and letters, they will get the message.
