Florida bill would require anger management courses for bullet buyers. We have a better idea. How about all people in public office, regardless of their position, be required to take a course on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and if they’re state officials, be required to take an additional course on their state’s constitution?

It might be appropriate to have an anger management course for someone who purchases skittles, tea and cough syrup.
How about same for voters who think thevaverage gun owner would acually use a weapon if not threatened
GREAT! Like it isn't hard enough to find ammo in Florida now, this will make it even tougher!
how about an i.q. test to determine eligibility to run for office? better yet, to vote...
Finally broke down and figured out your moniker, was driving me crazy. It's actually pretty funny, tip o'the tam to Ye. At least it isn't rechilut.
Seriously. The Founding Fathers never intended for every Tom Dick and Harry to be able to vote. Originally, you had to be a property owner!
I brought it up once, In order to drive a car, vote, become a lawyer, or run for office you have to have a three digit I.Q....and the kicker is the first digit can't be a zero.....you know like Joe Biden.
007?
Picture Biden's Top Ten as 007.
1. He'd be trying to carry a shotgun in a shoulder holster.
2. He'd ask for his beer to be shaken, not stirred.
3. Pretty women would run in the other direction.
4. He'd end up in the sack with the new M (Judi Dench) out of desperation.
5. Q would kill himself after trying for decades to come up with a gadget Biden couldn't flub.
6. When told to go plug someone he'd head for the Beverly Hills Hair Club for men for a new plug job.
7. He'd be green so he'd drive a Prius instead of an Aston Martin.
8. Instead of the Orient Express he'd take AMTRAK.
9. Instead of 'My name is Bond, James Bond' he'd say "Biden, President Biden, err, I mean Vice President Biden.'
10. In Live and Let Die he'd make certain the State Department gave the bad guys a $500 million dollar loan for crop improvement in their underdeveloped island nation.
At some point it should be required that any person wishing to hold public office pass a Civics, US Government and US Constitution exams. No pass, no way you can hold public office.
This screw ball has absolutely no idea what in the hell she's talking about. Maybe she should have to take an anger management course as well to hold onto her precious elected position. The truly sad thing is that there where enough brain dead individuals to have voted her into office. The FL House should call her to the floor and "explain" just how ignorant she and her bill are.
Even the idea of this makes me angry.
I think it is time to require a psychological examination, and a complete background check on anyone who wants to run for office. Also require them to take anger management classes, a class in civility, and require them to only speak when spoken to and to not propose any legislation without first putting up a bond to pay for the time wasted on such legislation. Also no pension, no car, no free lunches or other perks. You wanna run for office? you got to prove your not nuts first and you can be trusted.
OOOOOO! Background checks! I would be willing to voe for background checks for gun owners if they would add this to the bill!
Great idea, but that would wipe out about 90% of the legislature and 99% of the CBC. Racccissssstttt??? Nope, a fact!
How about some training courses for these ignorant Commiecrats on the Constitution they took a vow to uphold.
Yeah, that's the ticket! Mandatory Constitutional Sensitivity Training.
Are you kidding? They haven't even READ it, how are they supposed t defend it? Like all the other vows being made these days, they aren't really vows, as in serious promises. They are simply scripts to be read and followed. How many people anymore make any attempt to eep wedding vows, for instance?
Even just 5 years ago I would have just laughed at how stupid this woman is. Now, I am actually AFRAID that this ignorant idea could be pushed through. And I no longer have any confidence that our supreme court would do the right thing if something like this actually was passed.
They would demand a pay raise first.
