Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody stuck to her guns on Tuesday, doubling down on her assertion that an effort to get a state assault weapons ban on the 2020 ballot is misleading to voters. “Regardless of your position on gun restrictions, this particular amendment is a trick,” Moody said, speaking in Tampa on Tuesday. “By using the term ‘assault weapons’ and making the definition so broad that it would include most common hunting rifles and shotguns and those that could include rounds that were much less than what was listed in the petition highlights why it is a trick.” |

"We’ve never had an opportunity to vote on the issue of what types of weapons we want sold in our state."
The right of the people to keep and bear arms suitable for militia service is not subject to any plebiscite.
Natural rights cannot be voted away. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
