It simply gives the “owner” of the house of worship the right to allow people to carry. A lot od churches have some sort of teaching facility annexed to it and this made it iffy to carry as it could be construed as violating a School Gun Free Zone.
We tried this bill and failed last year. The RINOs let it die in committee. Let’s see if we can apply more pressure, shall we?
Tell me again which part of the Floriduh constitution gives the state the power to tell a church how to do ANYTHING. Texas had a law that prohibited carry in church when the concealed carry system went in place but it was changed in the next session.
