No Your Honor We Do Not Mean That

I am officially fed up with the judges in this state.

We, the citizenry, go through all the effort to wake up our congress critters in Tallahassee and get them to pass laws to address our wants and needs only to have some judge say, "nope law didn't mean that."

Hey judges, FUCK YOU.

We were fed up with county commissions and city councils ignoring the state preemption on firearms law.  We insisted on the cash penalties to the elected officials for a reason.  Fines are perfectly legal under the Florida constitution.  We insisted on them because said elected officials were using their access to the public trough to avoid responsibility for violating the law.  Your "honor" by saying that the fines don't apply you're subverting the demands of the people whose interests you are on the bench to protect.

We were fed up with being arrested and subjected to ruinously expensive legal proceedings when we availed ourselves of our right to defend ourselves.  This law is quite simply in its scope and language, why is it then that Mr Zimmerman is being subjected to a ruinously expensive legal battle when the facts of the case are very consistent and clear?

We were fed up with our rights to carry a firearm being curtailed.  So we created a shall-issue process to allow any honest citizen to carry one concealed.  We did not intend for that be a positive defense in court but rather an immunity to the crime of carrying a firearm.

We were fed up with a brief, unintentional, exposure of our concealed firearm to be considered open carry.  We tried to get open carry allowed, but got a half measure passed.  And it was passed, your "honor".  Why then are prosecutions for exposure still happening and proceeding through the court system.  Why are you not using your position on the bench to enforce the law against overzealous police officers who believe that only they should carry a firearm?

If our own government officials aren't going to follow the law; why should we?
