 How Florida’s Lax Gun Laws Are Endangering The PublicOn the heels of the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, the right-wing is spinning a false narrative referring to the area where the shooting took place as a  gun-free zone. We can dispel that myth with the simple truth. If it had truly been a  gun-free zone  as the right wing claims, then 53 people would still be alive. More than 50 others would not have been injured by bullets that came from one or more guns. The simple fact that more than 100 people were shot by a lone gunman is proof that the zone in and around Pulse was not  gun free. The fact of the matter is that we can never really have a  gun-free zone  unless some kind of enforcement exists to make sure that guns are kept out. Omar Mateen managed to bring in a handgun and an assault rifle, plus  other devices,  the nature of which are unknown at this time.According to the Los Angeles Times Mateen purchased both of the guns he took with him legally in the state of Florida. Both of the guns were purchased within the last week. These purchases were allowed, in spite of the fact that Mateen had been on the FBI terrorist watch list.The Law Center To Prevent Gun Violence awards the state of Florida an F grade for its disturbingly lax gun laws which clearly fail to protect the public.Here s a list of some of the problems with the state s gun laws:As a result of the state s failure to pass sane gun control legislation the number of gun homicides in Florida has been rising steadily.For the right wing to pretend that the Pulse Orlando mass shooting occurred because of a gun-free zone, rather than because state lawmakers have failed to take measures to protect the public from violent, dangerous people with guns is beyond pathetic.It s way past time for Florida republicans to act to protect the people of their state by passing reasonable gun control policies.Image credit: MANDEL NGAN/AFP/Getty News
