			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t know if I want to thank or slap the reader who sent me this link. I mean honestly? Is this how sportsmen want their license fees used. Or forget that! Is this how we want our tax dollars spent? As my good friend stated in the email; I guess if you&#8217;re in Florida you BETTER have you license with you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are states that allow or perhaps mandate that doctor&#8217;s offices ask their patients to include information about gun ownership for themselves and their families in their medical records. Florida has two bills proposed that would prohibit such a privacy intrusion &#8211; <a href="http://www.flsenate.gov/session/index.cfm?BI_Mode=ViewBillInfo&amp;Mode=Bills&amp;ElementID=JumpToBox&amp;SubMenu=1&amp;Year=2011&amp;billnum=432">SB432</a> and <a href="http://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=44993&amp;SessionIndex=-1&amp;SessionId=66&amp;BillText=&amp;BillNumber=155&amp;BillSponsorIndex=0&amp;BillListIndex=0&amp;BillStatuteText=&amp;BillTypeIndex=0&amp;BillReferredIndex=0&amp;HouseChamber=H&amp;BillSearchIndex=0">HB155</a>. </p>
<p>Marion Hammer, former president of the National Rifle Association, has an <a href="http://www.tallahassee.com/article/20110120/OPINION05/101200303/Marion-Hammer-Let-doctors-treat-illness-not-guns">OpEd in Tallahassee.com</a> that explains why such required information is both dangerous and an intrusion into our privacy.</p>
<p>So, now the question becomes thus. If Florida or any other state should pass a law that prohibits medical personnel from logging information about gun ownership and Obamacare remains and becomes effective, will Florida&#8217;s statute have any push against Obama&#8217;s?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>National Rifle Association &amp; Unified Sportsmen of Florida Endorse Adam Putnam</p>
<p>BARTOW, Fla. – Adam Putnam continues to broaden the support of his campaign for Commissioner of Agriculture with the endorsement by the National Rifle Association and the Unified Sportsmen of Florida.</p>
<p>“Adam’s solid pro-sportsmen, pro-Second Amendment, pro-freedom record has earned him our endorsement and our gratitude,” said Marion Hammer, NRA Past President and Executive Director of Unified Sportsmen of Florida. “No other candidate in this race has the background of dedicated legislative service that he has demonstrated to the cause of freedom, the Second Amendment and protection of Constitutional rights. The citizens of Florida could have no better champion than Adam Putnam.”</p>
<p>The National Rifle Association and Unified Sportsmen of Florida represent six million gun owners in the state of Florida and work to protect the Constitutional rights of all citizens. “As a lifelong hunter and shooter and Life Member of the NRA, I am proud to receive the support and endorsement of the National Rifle Association and Unified Sportsmen of Florida,” Putnam said. “I have always fought to protect the Second Amendment, the rights for self-defense and have sponsored anti-crime legislation throughout my career. As Commissioner, one of the most important responsibilities is protecting Floridian’s right to carry and I will ensure that eligible citizens who seek a Concealed Weapon License receive the most efficient service possible.”</p>
<p>“We are urging our members and all citizens who support the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to put freedom first and work to elect Adam Putnam to the office of Florida Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services,” Hammer concluded.</p>
<p>Adam Putnam is a Polk County citrus grower and cattleman who has represented the Twelfth Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives since January 2001. He also served as a member of the Florida House of Representatives from 1996 to 2000. Adam resides in his hometown of Bartow with his wife, Melissa, and their four children.</p>
