You, on the other hand, seem to need some sort of bizarre validation that your posts are spot on. I don't care if he keeps or loses his CCP. YOU DO! I'm sorry you hang with or know idiots who lose their CCP. That's something I don't think I'd mention. As to why do I think a conviction is required in this case to have his CCP revoked, I've previously stated:
1.) I am only familiar with AZ's liberal gun laws
2.) I have no idea and (upon request) have not seen Florida's statutes regarding self defense or CCP, therefore I AM APPLYING THE LAWS OF MY STATE GOVERNING MY RIGHT AND RESPONSIBILITY TO CARRY.
additionally
3.) I never posted ". . . that people have a RIGHT to a CCP or try to use RIGHT and PRIVILEGE as though they meant the same thing . . . " as you claim. You are mistaken and confused. If I did, share the post number.
4.) Get over yourself. If you want to kick my virtual ass ("I swear I don't have a gun") take it out of the crime forum and start a thread in Some Honest Therapy.
Sterling, I'll start with an apology. You DIDN'T say that a CCP was a legal right. SIXFOOTER did, at post 1101. My error. In my defense, sometimes you two right wing sock puppets sound so alike, its hard to tell you apart.
In my humbled state of contrition, I thought I'd do some research.
Below is a section of the Florida Concealed Carry statute (Section 790.06©):
" The department (of Agriculture and Consumer Services - those responsible for licensing - Disciple) shall, upon notification by a law enforcement agency, a court, or the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and subsequent written verification, suspend a license or the processing of an application for a license if the licensee or applicant is arrested or formally charged with a crime that would disqualify such person from having a license under this section, until final disposition of the case."
Crime in this case is either a felony or a misdemeanor.
Therefore, if the Florida quthorities have done their jobs, Zimmerman's license should have ALREADY been suspended.
And before you waste your time on a game of semantics, one either has or does not have a CCP. If one used to have a CCP and no longer does, he's LOST it.
We both express our opinions. Get off your high horse. If I defend mine energetically, maybe I have been around a bit and know better than to base an opinion of Florida law on Arizona's "very liberal gun laws", the ones you say are the "only ones" with which you are familiar. The rest of the country doesn't ride like Arizona, cowboy.
Although I did take a look at Arizona's law, too. Not really all that dissimilar.
Lastly, I share your taste in Walthers and single malt scotch.
There might be hope for you.
