PRESIDENTS CORNER October 2024 Hello Florida Sport Shooting Association Members, Election day is coming fast, just a few short days away. Early voting has been ongoing and will conclude in just a couple of days. For all of us, our Second Amendment freedoms are a top priority to protect. No matter if you are a hunter, collector, recreational or competitive shooter or maybe all of them…coach, student, young, older, man or women, we all enjoy our shooting rights. Going to the range is a way of life for my wife and I, and for many of you as well. This is what we do, and our Constitution guarantees our right to keep and bear arms. At the local, state, and national levels, the difference in the candidates’ view of our gun rights are like night and day, and that especially includes our presidential candidates. You know that! You also know how important it is to keep pro Second Amendment folks in office, and “on the bench.” If you have mailed in your ballot or are among the thousands of citizens who have already voted…THANK YOU. If you haven’t yet voted, please make every effort to make your voice heard and VOTE! Let’s send a loud and clear message to those who do not value our Constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms!! Finally, I ask that you please make every effort to encourage and assist other 2A Patriots to get out and vote. Thank you for everything you do to support our Second Amendment Freedoms!
