Ordinarily, yes, but I will make an exception as my wife is a Floridian.

I was in a hurry and didn't want to wait for normal online delivery. It was pretty cool, and free!

I found the video online. The lady concerned is assaulted by other store visitors. If she'd been carrying, she would probably have a prima facie defence of self defense to assault.

The url suggests Long Beach, which is California, which isn't one of the more liberal states when it comes to using a gun I don't think!

Can you post a link?
