A federal judge in Florida ruled a U.S. law that prohibits people from having firearms in post offices to be unconstitutional, the latest court decision declaring gun restrictions violate the Constitution.
U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, a Trump appointee, cited the 2022 Supreme Court ruling “New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen” that expanded gun rights. The 2022 ruling recognized the individual’s right to bear a handgun in public for self-defense.
The judge shared her decision in the indictment that charged Emmanuel Ayala, U.S. Postal Service truck driver, with illegal possession of a firearm in a federal building.
Isn’t Florida a stand your ground state?
“I’m in danger…”
Yes, Florida is a stand your ground state. We have no legal obligation to flee when attacked. We can fight back and use lethal force if necessary.
Slow down there, George Zimmerman.
Those skittles and hoodie were so much more dangerous than any gun.
Still don’t get how he got off in that case
Trayvon Martin was black and it’s Florida. I think it’s pretty much that simple.
Yes, if kid runs up and knocks your drink out of your hand, kill that fool! Fight back!
That is quite the story there. Do you win all the internet arguments in your head when you make them up like that?
Nowhere did I state it was ok to shoot anyone for knocking a drink. I pointed out where stand your ground laws apply and where they did not. Murder is still murder.
