Florida's Ban on Openly Carrying Guns is Unconstitutional, Appeals Court Rules

A three judge panel of the 1st District Court of Appeal, pointing to U.S. Supreme Court Rulings on Second Amendment Issues, said the open-carry ban is incompatible with the nation's "historical tradition of firearm regulation."

“No historical tradition supports Florida’s open carry ban,” Judge Stephanie Ray wrote in a 20-page opinion joined by Judges Lori Rowe and M. Kemmerly Thomas. “To the contrary, history confirms that the right to bear arms in public necessarily includes the right to do so openly. That is not to say that open carry is absolute or immune from reasonable regulation. But what the state may not do is extinguish the right altogether for ordinary, law-abiding, adult citizens.”

The children in question were Amish, and the schools in question were Amish-run schools. Previously, New York provided a religious exemption, but that ended in 2019.  The Amish in turn rejected the requirement to make sure their students were vaccinated. This led to three schools racking up fines that totaled $118,000.

(NewsNation) — Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s upcoming report on autism is expected to link the use of Tylenol during pregnancy and folate deficiencies as causes for autism.

The report being prepared is expected to include a review of previous autism research, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.

It is also expected to suggest that the use of a medication derived from folate could be used to treat autism.
