Please tell me that I read this wrong! This appears to be the same as the bill in New York.

What can I do as a citizen of Florida to prevent ANY of this bill from passing? If I wanted to be like the loonies in Ca or New England I would move there. I want to be able to maintain my 2nd amendment right as I have given 10 years(USN-USCG Enlisted) of my life in support of the constitution. All of my senate and reps are Dems so they are going to vote the party extremist left line. I don't have much of a chance in supporting a pro 2nd amendment candidate that will try and stop this bill as I live in Tallahassee.
This is ridiculous that they can dominate the National and Fl State agendas with utter stupidity. But the "loonies" as I have begun to think of them won't do anything about our national or state unemployment rates, deficits and the more important issues facing our Nation and State.
What is a poor boy to do?

You get to keep 'em but you must register and can only have 3 mags ...
How they can limit the # of mags or the rds per mag is puzzling ...
