(Reuters) - In a crisis situation or evacuation (click here) for natural disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires, people with no criminal record would be allowed to carry a firearm without a permit, under a bill approved Friday by the Florida House of Representatives.
"The bells of liberty are surely ringing throughout Florida today," said Representative Heather Dawes Fitzenhagen, a Fort Myers Republican who sponsored the bill lifting permit requirements for concealed weapons in an emergency declared by the governor or local authorities.
"By passing this bill, you will ensure that no Floridian, in lawful possession of a firearm, must leave it behind."
The House voted 80-36 to send the bill (HB 209) to the state Senate, where a companion bill is ready for a floor vote that would put the measure on Governor Rick Scott's desk later this month....

This bizarre idiocy is going to end tourism in Florida and the south for that matter. Survivalists are now dominating the idea they are actually correct to modern day society.

Authorities Without an Emergency Declaration (click here)
State officials have existing broad powers to address emergency situations by virtue of the statutory authorities granted to their positions without formally declaring a state of emergency.... 

The CDC is the only authority required in such emergencies (click here).

Our country addresses deaths as a measure to civil obedience. Now, Florida wants to stand that on it's head and allow deaths to measure the survivability of citizens.

National Violent Death Reporting System (click here)
The National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) provides states and communities with a clearer understanding of violent deaths to guide local decisions about efforts to prevent violence and helps them track progress over time.
Tragically, more than 38,000 people died by suicide in the United States in 2010. Homicide claimed another 16,000 people. We know these numbers can be lowered since violence is preventable....

This law is unconstitutional to begin with, but, while it is enacted there will be considerable deaths in Florida.

The NRA and all the other gun wacko organizations believe death is necessary to survive. That changes the benevolence of government's definition of protecting citizens from harm.

Self-defense has always been the definition whereby citizens can actually and legally use guns to survive. This law in Florida creates AUTHORITY within the definition of gun ownership. Any gun owner will have the authority to decide live and death under undefinable circumstances called 'Acts of God.'
