2016-29270 Resor RESOLUTION NO. 2016-29270 A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, URGING THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE TO OPPOSE HB 163 AND SB 300 REGARDING PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE FLORIDA STATUTES REGARDING THE OPEN CARRY OF FIREARMS AND WEAPONS. WHEREAS, House Bill (HB) 163 and Senate Bill (SB) 300 have been filed for consideration during the 2016 Florida Legislative session by Representative Matt Gaetz (R- Shalimar) and Senator Don Gaetz (R-Niceville), respectively; and WHEREAS, HB 163 and SB 300 would, among other things, amend Section 790.053 of the Florida Statutes to allow persons licensed to carry a concealed firearm or weapon to openly carry such firearm or weapon, subject to the existing restricted locations where the open carry of a firearm or a weapon is prohibited (e.g., police stations, courthouses, meetings of the Legislature and local governing bodies, schools and college campuses); and WHEREAS, HB 163 and SB 300 would allow concealed firearm and weapon permit holders to carry such firearms and weapons openly in non-restricted locations and in an unsecured manner, making it more difficult for law enforcement to distinguish between those carrying firearms legally and illegally; WHEREAS, citizens are already allowed to open carry firearms under certain limited conditions without a permit and to carry a concealed weapon with a permit in many locations; and WHEREAS, despite contrary evidence asserted by the proponents of these Bills, recently published scholarly updates of the empirical evidence on this issue by Stanford Law Professor John J. Donohue, Ill, indicates that right-to-carry laws tend to increase, rather than reduce, aggravated assaults and, due to various difficulties in data collecting methodologies, there is little or no indication of any consistent impact that right-to-carry laws have on other categories of crimes; and WHEREAS, HB 163 and SB 300 would infringe upon the public safety and welfare of the citizens and visitors of Miami Beach. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT DULY RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, that the Florida Legislature is hereby respectfully urged to oppose HB 163 and SB 300.
