If you support the 2nd Amendment and the right to protect yourself and your loved ones, read this. She was a co-sponsor of the bill.

Vice President Kamala Harris supported a 2005 ballot measure that banned San Francisco residents from possessing pistols.

I retired from Sargento Cheese and they are an amazing company. Sargento is celebrating their 70th anniversary and was featured on ABC news in their 'Made in America' segment. Enjoy!

Leonard Gentine teamed up with Joe Sartori to form the company in 1953. CEO Louie Gentine is Leonard's grandson, and highlighted the business' continued focus on family.

I've had some friends and past students ask me about the new Florida Constitutional Carry law that was recently passed. I thought it might be helpful to some to go over some questions I've been asked. I am not a lawyer so my information is based on what I read in the bill, other articles and personal observations. Hope this helps a few of you out there.

1. Should I still get a Florida concealed carry permit? Yes! This can become important when traveling across state lines.
2. Should I get training? Yes! It’s your responsibility to get trained properly by a reputable NRA Instructor.
3. How many other states have constitutional carry? Twenty-five states now have permitless carry; Florida will be the 26th.
4. Some say this will turn our cities into the wild west: Constitutional carry makes it possible for all lawful citizens – rich and poor regardless of race or any other demographic – to protect themselves without undue burden. Constitutional carry has not made states less safe according to a statistical study over 29 years.
5. What if I’m stopped? Individuals stopped by law enforcement with a gun and no Florida ID are breaking the law unless they have an ID from another state where Florida has reciprocity.
6. What if I buy a gun? Background checks are still required as in the past when purchasing a firearm. Residents must still meet all existing requirements to own a gun: over 21, not a felon, etc.
7. Can I open carry my fi****ms now? Open carry is still unlawful, it has to be concealed.
8. Can criminals now carry fi****ms legally? By law, if you could not secure a CWP in Florida (ie: felon) you still cannot carry a firearm in Florida.
9. If I’m an NRA Instructor, how will this affect my business? It’s my belief most people who are new to shooting and purchase a firearm will get trained so they properly know how to use it, store it, clean it and carry it. However, this new law will w**d out those trainers who do not provide the gold standard of training.

Spent the weekend training five new Instructor candidates for the NRA. It was a jam packed two days. The course was comprehensive and challenging. But the candidates came to the class ready to learn. Congratulations to those who passed the course and will soon be a new group of NRA Instructors teaching people 'the safe' way to handle, store and use their fi****ms.
