VIERA, Fla. — Commissioners in Brevard County voted unanimously Tuesday to allow employees with concealed carry permits to carry guns on the job.
The commission voted 5-0 during their regular Board of County Commissioners meeting.
The new policy takes effect immediately. Any of the county’s more than 2,000 concealed-weapons-permitted employees can now carry a firearm on the job.
“These are law-abiding citizens,” Commissioner John Tobia said. “For one reason or another, this previous county commission had said they don’t deserve the right to have their gun at work. I disagreed with that, and thankfully, this board changed that policy,” Tobia said.

A moment of clarity in Florida politics? Perhaps some politicos are realizing Gun Control is not the sure thing they were told just a month ago?
At least they are upholding their oath of office.
