Reminder To Florida Residents: Permitless Concealed Carry Is In Effect During Mandatory Evacuations

As dangerous hurricane Dorian approaches the east coast of Florida, some people need to be reminded that during mandatory evacuations, as some are seeing now, and others will see eventually, permitless concealed carry is in effect. Don’t let the lying left wing media fool you into thinking otherwise. The permitless concealed carry law was signed into effect by then governor Rick Scott in 2015.

The bill allows for a 48-hour window of permitless carry, and will come in handy for many of those affected by this storm.

SB 290 — Carrying a Concealed Weapon or a Concealed Firearm – This bill allows a concealed weapon or firearm to be carried for 48 hours during a mandatory evacuation order declared during a state of emergency.

The bill (SB 290), which the Florida House approved by a 86-26 vote back in April of 2015, was drafted as a response to Hurricane Katrina when many gun owners faced charges after they took their firearms with them when fleeing their homes.
