USPA NEWS - HB 1355, 1 July 2013, went into effect today being signed by Governor Rick Scott. Is it necessary or discriminating for ratings? Is the legislative branch turning into a Hollywood production or has it lost it´s way do to lack of oversight without foresight?
An excerpt: “˜Purchase of Firearms by Mentally Ill Persons: Provides conditions under which person who has been voluntarily admitted to mental institution for treatment“¦´

Leaps and bounds are presented here with extreme potential for not only discrimination but also abuse. Lets not forget those suffering funerals or deaths in the family who have a moment of depression, now will pay for it in the long run and be labeled “mentally ill.“
Now citizen´s gun rights are being left not in the hands of law makers but in the hands of the already corrupt health care agencies of Florida. Look at how many physicians are arrested, “˜in the United States number one for public corruption State of Florida´, for racketeering, collusion and corruption in Florida, especially pill mills.

For the purpose of Section 242, acts under “color of law“ include acts not only done by federal, state, or local officials within the their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds of that official´s lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the performance of his/her official duties. Persons acting under color of law within the meaning of this statute include police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges, care providers in public health facilities, and others who are acting as public officials.
