FL Carry Sues Tampa for Violations of Constitutional Rights

Florida Carry files lawsuit against Tampa for violations of members’ rights and Florida law. Tampa went too far.

Florida – -(Ammoland.com)- Our member, George Freeman was NOT breaking any law but he was detained for over an hour, disarmed, searched, and ultimately banned from a Tampa city pier and all city parks for exercising his Second Amendment Right to Bear Arms.

The fact that a person is peacefully exercising their right to bear arms is not cause for police officers to attack, detain, search, and trespass a citizen who is a law-abiding gun owner.

To insure that this does not happen again, our lawyers are coming fishing with us at the next regularly scheduled Florida Carry Fishing Meetup, on Saturday, July 11th 2015 – 10am Ballast Point Pier in Tampa. Information and directions can be found by clicking HERE.

We have also filed a lawsuit to defend the right to bear arms, our members, and your rights. You can read about the case by clicking HERE.

We are raising funds to support the lawsuit. please read more and consider contributing to your fellow gun owner’s case at: https://www.gofundme.com/DefendingRKBA

We often have to go to the courts to demand our rights.
