April 9: Gov. Crist, veto this bill

As expected, the full Florida Legislature caved in to the bullies at the National Rifle Association:

In doing so, they completely disregard public safety, business rights (who would have thought?), and the peace of mind of everybody in the workplace.

Job security issues are tough enough right now without worrying about whether someone who's ticked off is going to bring a gun to work. With the bad economy, more people are getting ticked off.

Gov. Charlie Crist, unfortunately, has said he will sign the bill. It's time for Floridians who believe in public safety, and who remember the recent shootings we've had in this state, to work to change his mind.

Governor, veto this bill.
