Florida City Declares Hurricane Emergency, Bans Gun Sales and Even Displays

If we learned one thing from the COVID pandemic, it's that the government will declare an emergency and immediately begin curtailing rights. Knowing that Hurricane Helene was approaching, the city council of Okeechobee, Florida, declared a local state of emergency and banned gun sales. But that's not all. Also banned was the display of guns or ammunition at any store or shop. Finally, "the intentional possession in a public place of a firearm by any person, except a duly authorized law enforcement official or person in military service" was prohibited.

The Firearms Policy Coalition got in touch with the DeSantis administration, which directed Okeechobee's police chief to rescind the order. Chalk up another win for Ron DeSantis.

What about looters who take advantage of the situation? Kamala Harris said she'd shoot anyone who broke into her house.

What is the point of this emergency declaration anyway? A natural disaster is when you want to be carrying a firearm. Apparently, this has been on the books in Florida and it needs to come off.
