so now criminals can carry guns without fear of being arrested for it.    what could go wrong?

Under the bill — dubbed "constitutional carry" by conservatives and gun rights activists and "permitless carry" by gun safety activists, supporters of gun restrictions and neutral groups — people would need to have only valid IDs on them while carrying concealed weapons. Failure to do so would carry a $25 fine.

Senate passage comes just three days after a shooter opened fire inside a Nashville, Tennessee, school, killing six people — including three 9-year-old children — an attack DeSantis has not yet spoken about publicly. He is scheduled to visit an Atlanta-area gun store Thursday — a visit Democrats in Georgia have implored him to reschedule.

Democrats hit Republicans for passing the bill within moments of its passage, singling out DeSantis for criticism.

“Florida Republicans have delivered exactly what Ron DeSantis asked for in his shameless effort to boost his national profile and win over the MAGA base," state Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried said in a statement.

DeSantis has called the bill “something that I’ve always supported.” If he does sign it, Florida will become the 26th state to have such a law as gun violence continues to rocket out of control in the country. There have already been more than 10,000 gun violence deaths in the U.S. in 2023, according to data from the Gun Violence Archive.

Why are you claiming all people engaged in concealed carry are criminals and shouldn't have loaded weapons?

Democrats insist making America a prison will end crime but cannot cite one prison where no crime has ever been committed!

"Shall not be infringed"

Self defense is an inherent right as an American. Police are only around to enforce existing laws, and clean up any mess created by societies miscreants.

Criminals ignore any laws they feel like and always have.

Once criminals realize that any potential victim is prepared to equal the threat, that threat is minimized or matched.

You really are an idiot aren't you?

Felons would still be unable to have firearms zippy

Nothing in the law changes that.

Or are you reading into this your normal BS again ! ?

I thought Americans could always carry loaded guns.  When did that freedom get taken away?  An unloaded gun is no gun at all.

Besides, laws don't allow or disallow stuff.  Laws only make some stuff punishable.  Everything else is unpunishable.  Commies don't understand much.

CCPWvit cannot explain why it is good and just to treat all Americans like prisoners!
