Palm Beach Resists State Gun Laws and the Second Amendment :: 08/30/2011
Every city and county government in Florida is being encouraged to review its firearms ordinances after the state Legislature adopted a law that makes it illegal for local officials to impose tougher gun regulations than the state does.
But Palm Beach County is among a handful of Sunshine State local governments that are resisting the new law. Apparently, county commissioners there believe they -- and they, alone -- have the responsibility to cherry pick through the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights to determine what liberties they can bestow on their subjects.
Under the new state law, Palm Beach County must repeal several county gun ordinances, including bringing guns to a park or child-care facility and shooting a gun east of the 20-mile bend.
