    Florida Carry wins lawsuit against Broward County

    Tallahassee, FL - Florida Carry, Inc. has emerged victorious in their lawsuit against Broward County and County Administrator Bertha Henry in which they sought a permanent injunction to protect the rights of law abiding gun owners from the county's multiple illegal ordinances that burden nearly all aspects of firearms ownership, use, transfer, and possession.

    ...

    In his ruling Judge Carlos Rodriguez granted Florida Carry's request for summary judgement and permanently enjoined Broward County from enforcing their illegal gun laws. Florida Carry was also awarded reimbursement of legal fees.

    Very encouraging! I found it interesting that the court found "multiple illegal ordinances" so not only was Broward County wrong once but continued to be wrong time and again. This would seem to be a pattern being repeated throughout the US.

    If only there was a way to make officials pay the costs out of their own pockets instead of abusing people's taxes. That might put a stop to this behavior. better yet, if there were criminal penalties for enacting illegal laws...

    Automatic removal from office would be a good penalty.
