The Governor of the Sunshine State having signed the Permitless Carry Bill into law, it became effective on July 1. Also known as Constitutional Carry by its zealous advocates, the law allows any Florida resident, or even resident of another state who happens to be in Florida, to carry a concealed firearm within a permit. The only restriction is that the holder must carry identification, and cannot enter a school zone armed.
This means untrained, and potentially unstable, individuals are now walking around in public with concealed firearms. Inasmuch as AML conference attendees like to socialize on South Beach during the event, and some choose to visit "gentlemen's' clubs for more adult entertainment, the person sitting next to them might very well be armed, intoxicated, unstable and dangerous. Most AML conferences seminars and events in South Florida are held at hotels where there is more than enough entertainment to satisfy most attendees. Stay there, please. We do not need to read in the news how a compliance officer became a victim, by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, or agitated someone in a bar or club with fatal results. Florida has now become a far more dangerous place to have fun; Watch yourself, please. Stay in the hotel after hours.
