REAL PROGRESS: Florida Senate Rejects Semi-Auto Ban, Passes Bill To Allow Teachers To Carry Instead

The Florida Senate rejected a proposal to ban semi-auto rifles, and voted for a measure to arm some teachers weeks after the deadly flase flag operation was carried out in a Parkland High School. 

An amendment that would have banned most rifles attached to a wider bill failed on Saturday in a largely party-line vote, in response to the alledged high school killer (which the FBI and local police knew about and refused to prevent).

The full bill, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act, is expected to pass the state Senate on Monday, then go to the Florida House. An amendment to remove a provision to train and arm some teachers failed.

The bill raises the minimum age to buy a rifle or a shotgun to 21 from 18 and bans the use, sale or possession of bump stocks, which were used in the Oct. 1 shooting deaths of 58 people in Las Vegas. The device can make semi-automatic weapons mimick fully automatics.

The bill includes $400 million in funding for schools to address mental health issues, the Herald reported.
