Gibbons Goes Off Meds, Politely Disagrees with NRA

Posted by Jeff Woods on Sun, Sep 13, 2009 at 9:31 AM

Guess Bill Gibbons isn't counting on much campaign cash from the NRA. Here he is criticizing the legislature for failing to toughen sentences for gun crimes and for passing the guns-in-bars law.
"Frankly as DA for over 12 years now, I could go through a list of cases that I've had to prosecute involving the unfortunate mixture of guns and places that serve alcohol. I'm just very, very concerned about that."

Especially on law and order issues, Gibbons is the most sensible Republican candidate. Unfortunately for him, it probably won't be a law and order election.

wow!ya mean those rednecks shouldn't be allowed to carry their AK 47'S TO PRES.OBAMA RALLY'S OR SPEECH'S either.
Its very nerve racking when I'm in the parks knowing that somewhere there could be a degranged Republican waiting to take a potshot at a Democrat ,yes I'm very concern especially as the neo con Dick Army's and Rick Scott keep their minions enrage about a decent Health care Package .every damn congressperson/senators pass and present recieves the best health care in the Naval Hospitals ,walter Reed Army hospitals and I don't hear anyone bithing about those people recieveing their Entitlement Package via the American taxpayer

- How many of these cases involved people with permits to carry?
