Florida stopped doing background checks for conceal carry permits for a year.

From the article in the OP:

"Upon discovery of this former employee's negligence in not conducting the further review required on 365 applications, we immediately completed full background checks on those 365 applications, which resulted in 291 revocations," Putnam said in the statement. "The former employee was both deceitful and negligent, and we immediately launched an investigation and implemented safeguards to ensure this never happens again."

NICS has a 94% false positive rate. So out of 275k requests (if I'm reading to article correctly) 291 were revoked and I'm curious what number of those was done "justly" so (also for what reason).

Regardless this is just a ccw license, something that isn't required in multiple states and a law that would never stop a criminal from carrying.

Hope you don't live in a neighborhood with gun owners because you will be collateral damage of the predators and Jdam's you keep talking about. But seeing how gun owners live in basically every county in the US I find that unlikely. So the US would carpet bomb every county in the US is your opinion?

That scoreboard is missing a hash mark. The one where we overthrew Britain and became an independent country.

That was the American Army, which was actually ethnically more British than the empire troops, and the French Navy. I can't be bothered to debunk your juvenile fantasies in the first part of the post. I am bored of arguing with completely irrational gun cult fanatics so am unsubscribing from this thread. I hope that you can get debrainwashed or whatever they call it in time.
 
-The Civil War. This is the big one. The Union army NEVER became smaller than the Confederate one. Union forces had zero issue moving into rebel territory and burning pillaging and otherwising setting those fools straight


How many people from states getting burned and pillaged were fighting on behalf of the tyrannical government?

tyranny is in the eye of the beholder. America broke away from 'tyrannical england' because rich land owners didnt like paying taxes. Confederates broke away from the 'tyrannical union' because wealthy land owners didnt want to pay for labor.

Tyranny is often just a buzzword for 'anything that results in less profit for me'. at least as far as America goes. Half the examples i used were labor disputes for example.

You can't say all of that and answer the question? :(
 
I see the gun crazies found the thread and are now saying it's really a good thing for meth heads, murderers, paranoid schizophrenics etc. to be walking around with loaded guns stuck in their belts.

figured i did. They were ALL instances of troops 'siding' with Tyranny. If a company FORCED you to work for shit wages, and then only paid you in script that was ONLY usable at a company store, thats basically slavery. We'd consider that practice, then AND now to be the most egregious of abuses. and troops still heeded the call of country over countrymen.

What we consider 'tyranny' now is kinda trite to what true tyranny was, and was actively supported and upheld by federal and government forces.

and we only did that because of
-an organized standing army that was in turn:
-supported by another empire, in this case France.

Militiamen were next to worthless as a fighting force and reliance upon local gun owners almost saw the revolution fail. It was organized, trained and funded armies, that beat the British. Not a bunch of yahoos with their shooting irons who invariably ran away whenever a fight looked like it might go south.

I'm aware but at the start militias, minutemen, etc played a big role, like starting the war.
