[Vision2020] GEORGIA UNVEILS NEW SLOGAN: “WE MAKE FLORIDA LOOK SAFE”

<Where does one find a 'comfort zone'
    any longer?!>

'comfort zone' is a personal thing which is why gun restrictions are a never ending debate along with legal maneuvering of where to draw the line if any line ought to be drawn in the first place to allow/prevent the drawing of firearms.

Some people refuse to fly in an airplane because it's out their 'comfort zone' even though statistically they're probably many times more safer flying than they are in their own home.

    Yet, Georgia's new laws are more "liberal" than Idaho's......they
    were persuaded to delete the provision that would have allowed guns
    on state higher-ed campuses...

    So let's not knock Georgia!!  Where does one find a 'comfort zone'
    any longer?!

    All the best...

            GEORGIA UNVEILS NEW SLOGAN: “WE
                MAKE FLORIDA LOOK SAFE”

            ATLANTA (The Borowitz Report)—Flanked by members of
              his state’s legislature on Wednesday afternoon, Georgia
              Governor Nathan Deal proudly unveiled Georgia’s new
              official state slogan, “We Make Florida Look Safe.”
            Gov. Deal told reporters that the slogan was “more
              than just words,” reflecting Georgia’s determination to
              best its rival Florida for the nation’s most reckless gun
              law.

              “When
                Florida passed Stand Your Ground, we knew we were
                playing catch-up,” Gov. Deal said. “Thanks to the fine
                men and women in the Georgia state legislature, we’re
                No. 1.”
              Gov. Deal said he hoped that the state’s newly
                enacted Safe Carry Protection Act, which makes it legal
                to carry guns in bars, schools, churches, and some
                government buildings, would send the message that
                Georgia was taking its competition with Florida “very,
                very seriously.”
              “In recent years, if you wanted to fire off a gun
                any damn place you pleased, there was a sense that
                Florida was the state for you,” he said. “We’re hoping
                to change that perception.”

                the hill."
