To go into City Hall or the courthouse, you have to go through a screening as if you were about to board a plane.

Why?

Because we must protect the lives of politicians and bureaucrats at all cost.

You aren’t frisked when you go to Cracker Barrel or Wal-mart – which by the way has more shootings than any public buildings did before they were “hardened.”.

Bear in mind that at least half the people we are protecting at considerable expense want to take your means of self-defense away from you.

Fifty years ago, people walked freely in and out of local government buildings. Then someone decided that the elites need to be protected from the people.

Actually, the people entering the building probably need more protection than those in the building.

Fortunately, we live in the free state of Florida. As of July 1 you can carry a concealed weapon without a permit.

You just can’t carry it into a public building where our precious politicians gather.
