Leigh Hartzog Announces

Intent To Run For

Supervisor Of Elections


Dear Citizens of Gilchrist
County,
This letter is to inform you
of my intent to seek the office
of Supervisor of Elections. My
original intent was to run in a
few years, but upon' learning
of Mrs. Susan Bryant retiring,
I am prepared to go forth with
whatever is necessary to seek
this office at this time.
Mrs. Bryant has served our
county for so many years with
such confidentiality, dedication,
leadership and community
involvement. I would love the
,opportunity to do the same.
My name is Leigh Hartzog. I
moved to Gilchrist County after
marrying my husband, Grady,
12 years ago. We then opened
our Badcock Home Furnishings
business that we currently own
and operate. We later purchased
the Newberry location in 2001
when my husband's parents
retired. I have two daughters,
Carleigh and Kendall, and have
loved raising them in this great


Leigh Hartzog
community.
I am a Christian and a member
of First Baptist Church of
Trenton where I have actively
served for approximately ten
years. I am a Rotarian and have
been a Chamber member since,
1995 and currently serve on both
boards. -..
In successfully managing two
businesses and being involved
with the community, I feel I


have acquired a love for the
people of Gilchrist County and
would be honored to be your
next Supervisor of Elections. I
would appreciate your prayers
and support.
Leigh Hartzog

Admiral David Philman To Be

Guest Speaker At Gilchrist

Memorial Day Program


The Gilchrist County His-
torical Society is pleased to
announce this year's keynote
speaker will be Admiral David
L. Philman. Admiral Philman
is the highest ranking military
officer to be featured in our
annual Memorial Day Tribute,
which will be held on May 29,
2006, at the Gilchrist County
Courthouse.
The Historical Society is
proud of the tradition of honor-
ing veterans at this solemn time,
to express our gratitude to those
who have served and are serv-
ing. This year's theme will be
"Reflections" as we reaffirm that
freedom is only possible through
the commitment and dedica-
tion of our men and women in
uniform. We are indebted to the
many unselfish heroes who have
given their lives for the good of
our nation.
The Historical Society will
meet at the Trenton Depot on
Tuesday, March 21 at 7:00 p.m.
to begin planning the event, and
encourage all interested parties


to attend. The achievements of
mthe GCHS include erecting mon-
uments, recognizing the service
of area veterans, and the Memo-
rial Day Tribute. This communi-
ty effort requires involvement of
many to adequately convey our
sincere appreciation for those
who have died for our country.
We must plan for a parade,
luncheon, and other aspects that
,give the tribute an aura of dig-
nity befitting the occasion. We
seek to establish a foundation
for future endeavors worthy of
our great country and our great
county.
These goals require people -
YOU. The current members of
the society the have worked hard
to make it viable, but we need
more involvement to help with
planning parades, luncheons,
displays, and other events
that celebrate and preserve our
unique history. The Gilchrist
County Commission has com-
mitted modest funding for our
activities and we have all of the
ingredients to become a first rate

Historical Society that is perma-
nent- and active. We just need
more people to become actively
involved. We have enjoyed a
great deal of support from every-
one for our short term goals, but
we are at a point where we really
need more participation for long
term goals such as a location
to display unique features of
Gilchrist County and acknowl-
edge the varied contributions
of our rich, interesting past and
present.
At our March 21st meeting,
we intend to designate officers
to complete tasks related to
the Memorial Day Tribute and
beyond. To date, most of the
tasks have been completed by
relatively few people, so be pre-
pared to take the torch and move
the Historical Society forward.
We believe that Gilchrist County
is a very special place, and we
need your talents, energy, and
ideas to preserve and recognize
the uniqueness our little tribe

The Gilchrist CountN Com-

pinch, of growth and the con-
struction boom to this area as
they struggled to find contrac-
tors to fill restrict e budget

The board's-top priority w"as
dampened by the amount of'
revenue they had to spend on
the construction 'of a restroom.
facility at Hart Springs. After
Park Superintendent Julie
Harrison had to contact pro-
spective subcontractors to see if
the) would bid on the job, she
and County Administrator Ron
McQueen reported to the board
that the' project was going to
take the entire amount of reve-'
nue., These funds originated from,
a FEMA program and a FRDAP
grant to construct the 30x60
foot structure that will replace
the former facility, which was
located near the springs.
The County Commission is
trying to' construct this facility.

been unable-to review an\ bids
since no contractors are inter-
ested in performing the \%ork at
this time. The board determined
that.this is a builder's market
with the construction boom that
has hit Gilchrist Count' and the
entire area of North Central
Florida. '.
The board determined that
they 'would re-bid the Hart
Springs project and hope that
some masonr% contractors will
be interested in completing the
construction before summer.

The Gilchrist County Com-
mission is also working % ith the

surfacing of CR 337. The
county had been appro\ ed for a
Department of Transportation
Small Counth Outreach Pro-
gram (SCOP) project that is
designed to pa\ for a major por-
tion of the resurfacing and %%id-
ening of this road. When the
bids were first reviewed the
asphalt cost was reported to be
$49.00 a ton. When the engineer
held a meeting with the contrac-

tions, the price on asphalt had

Streetwise
By Lauren Rudd!
It would appear that Wall
'Street has rather dramatically
overvalued the shares of Whole
Foods Market. When I last wrote

about Whole Foods a year ago,
my FY 2005- earnings estimate
was $1.24 per share (post split)
with a projected share price of
$56, a number that was close
-to the company's intrinsic value
at that time of $57 per share.
Whole Food's .closing price
back on March 15, 2005, was
lr$49.97. .... 1 1 : ,
Here we are exactly one Near
later and the shares are trading
at $61.19 for a' gain of 22.5
percent. Earnings for the 2005
* fiscal year came in at $1.22 per
share. However, the multiple,
or P/E ratio, has gone from 45
to 59.
. So where are my concerns?
To start xNith, a' head-on
collision with the large grocery
chains, including W\Val-Mart, is
inevitable. Stephen Quinn. Wal-
Mart's senior vice president of
marketing, said at a recent Bear
Steams Retail, Restaurants.and
Consumer Conference that Wal-
Mart plans to expand its organic
foods offerings.
SAccording to Quinn, more
than 400 stock-keeping units of
organic foods are expected to
be in Wal-Mart stores by this
summer .at the low price points
the retailer is famous for.
John MackeN. .Whole Foods
CEQ, recently told shareholders
at the company's annual meeting
that his plans are to reach $12
billion in annual sales by the
year 2010.. That number is
more than twice the $4.7 billion
Whole Foods recorded in sales

in limited quantities,
The board discussed the
construction project of CR 337
from SE 70th Avenue to the
Alachua County line. They de-
termined that the $500,000
shortfall in' revenue due to in-
creased cost in materials is more
than the county can afford. The
board is now working to iden-.
tify ways that some of these
projected costs can be reduced
to widen and resurface a portion
of this county road.

Have you got one? I have, in
fact I have several, one has high
sides, my dad gave me one and
one belonged to John's
grandmother and it's as smooth
as silk. I can't think of a single
kitchen pot, pan or utensil that
is closer to a country' cook's"
heart than his or her well
seasoned cast iron frying pan.
Although my frying pans are
m) favorites, I am kinda fond of
my rolling pin also. Mrs. Dolly
Read gave John and I a dishpan,
rolling pin, butcher" knife,
cutting board and colander
when we got married some 27
years ago. With the exception of
the cutting board all the items
are still in use in our kitchen
today. What a practical gift.
Miss Doll) was a no frills kind
of lad), and I hale wonderful
fond memories of. her and Mr.
Eli both.
Anyw a, back to the cast iron
frying pans. Cast iron can be
traced as far back as the middle
ages: this makes it one of the
oldest types of cook\ are.
In a study which was done in
the 90's Dr. Craig Walker of the
Cardiovascular Institute .of the
South found that cast iron
cook%%are contributes to the iron
content of many cooked food.
I'm pretty sure m\ grandmother
could ha\e told -us this,
information % without a study.
If -you are lucky enough to
receive an old family cast iron
frying pan b) all means.keep it.
The new cast iron you buy.
today is not made out of the
same quality iron as, the pans
"ere years ago. In. fact I've
bought several at antique shops
to give as gifts.
New pieces of cast iron have


in 2005. Furthermore. it appears
that an apparition of an extra $2
billion has suddenly been added
to previous projections.
To reach that $12 bill i 'al,
-MackeN said he plans to open
25 to 30 new stores per year
beginning in 2007. By .the end
of the company's 2005 fiscal
year, which ended Sept. 30, the
company had added 12 stores to
reach a total of 175. Furthermore,
according to the companN 's most
recent 10-K filing % with the SEC,
Whole Foods has not opened
more than 12 stores per year
since 2001.
Nonetheless. I could acquiesce
to all this exuberance with a wait
and see attitude if it were not
for the intrinsic value of Whole
Foods' shares. For example, a
discounted earnings model with
initial earnings of $146.8 million
and an average 5-year earnings
growth rate of 20 percent for
the first 10 years and 6 percent
thereafter,, along with a discount
rate of 11 percent for the first 10
years and 12 percent thereafter,
yields an intrinsic value of $57

My earnings estimate for
Whole Foods for FY 2006 is
$1.35 per share,.a number that
is 10.7 percent higher than last
year. At the current P/E level
you would have a $79 stock. The
difficulty is that I do not believe
the P/E will hold at that level.
Using last year's P/E.'of 45 (still
too high) the share price would
be $60.75, or about where the
shares trade today.
So what does it all mean? My
opinion is that unless you want
to accept an exorbitantly high

. shares are somewhere between
moderately and dramatically
over priced.

advance Florida's fight against

What I Can Become With God's Help
(Kent Heaton)


This story is told of Michelangelo, the famous
Italian sculptor, standing before a rejected block of
marble that had been cast aside by some builders.
Staring intently at the block of marble, someone
asked Michelangelo what he was looking at. "An
angel," he replied. What he had discovered in
looking at the block of marble cast aside was what he
could bring out with mallet and chisel. To others the
block of marble was a rejected stone; to
Michelangelo it became a masterpiece.
It. would seem that when Jesus chose the twelve
apostles, He was not looking as clearly as what they
were but what they could become. On the surface,
these twelve men were Galilean fishermen, a zealot, a
tax collector and two brothers known as the "sons of
thunder." (Mark 3:14-19) How could these men
possibly be the future of the Kingdom of God to take
a message of salvation to a lost world? With the
exception of Judas, they became ambassadors of the
good news of Jesus Christ to which later the apostle
Paul would write, "Not moved away from the hope
of the gospel which ye heard, which was preached
in all creation under heaven." (Colossians 1:23)
They became all that God wanted them to be because
of God working through them.
It is easy to focus on who we are instead of what
we can become. We are the rejected stone that God
saw promise in. In the Gaiden of Eden, God saw the
blessing of bringing salvation to the creation that had
rebelled against Him. Through Jesus Christ we are
made whole in the "new creation." (2 Corinthians
5:17) Peter tells us we are an "elect race, a royal


priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own
possession." (1 Peter 2:9) This is not because of
who we are but what we have become in Jesus Christ.
Our lives are changed by the power of God
working through our thoughts, our speech, our
actions and our motives. This change is a
metamorphose of our character of sin to our
realization of hope. What I can become with God's
help is only limited by what I desire Him to work in
my life. "And we all, with unveiled face, beholding
the glory of the Lord, are being changed into his
likeness from one degree of glory to another; for
this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit." (2
Corinthians 3:18) Allowing God to work in my life
will bring about great changes in every aspect of my
character.
Many people who lived reprobate lives before
obeying the gospel are changed beyond recognition
because of what God has done in their lives.
Consider the changes in Saul of Tarsus, who became
(with God's help) the apostle Paul. (Philippians
3:4-6) If these changes can be made in Saul, what
great wonders can take place in my life? "What then
shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against
us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him
up for us all, will he not also give us all things with
him?" (Romans 8:31,32) How wonderful the
promise of God to gives us all things in Christ. With
God's help, I can hear those precious words, "Well
done, thou good and faithful servant. Enter!"
(Matthew 25:21)

From The
Shelves Of
The Bell
Library
On Saturday, while I was
working in the library, a young
mother came in to renew some
books and to check out others for
her son. Her. son is seven- year-,
old A. J. Home, a student at
Bell Elementary. Big Pumpkin,
is a beginning reader book that
A. J. likes very much. The witch
wanted a pumpkin pie so she
planted a pumpkin seed and it
grew and a small pumpkin grew.
on the pumpkin %ine. The little
pumpkin grew into a pumpkin so
large the witch pulled and pulled
but could not pull it off the vine.
It was almost Halloween and the
witch %anted to make a pumpkin
pie. Read the book to learn how a
ghost, a vampire, and a mummy
all could now get the pumpkin
off the vine. Finally a bat solved
the problem. Do you think the
%witch got her puinpkin pie for
Halloween? See if you like this
book as much as A. J. does.
Junior readers, if- you
like horses you will enjoy a
fascinating little book,, Dark
Horse written by Jean Slaughter
Doty. When' the horse came
to the stables he was a starved
misfit but Abby fell in love
.with him and discovered that he
was a trained jumper %who %went
onto win ribbons and become
famous. '

Remember Our
Troops
With Gilchrist County resi-
dents who are parents, grandpar-
ents and other relatives of per-
sonnel presently serving in the
military, there's a sense of pride,
which cannot be explained.
When some of those relatives
share how they feel w% hen they
see a particular name mentioned
in the newspaper and know that
other people are reading the arti-
cle and then praying for those in
the uniformed services, it is ever
so encouraging. So, keep the
prayers going, forth, for' prayer
is a powerful thing. Ask our
Heavenly Father to show Him-
self strong in their lives, while
keeping them safe and helping
each one to stay focused on their
job, particularly those who are in
a combat zone. We all know that
freedom is not free, so the least


we at home can do is take the
time to pray and name each one
who is on the list. If you know
someone who is active service
and his or her name is not
mentioned here, please contact
the Gilchrist County Journal so
their name can be added.

March Is National
Brain Injury
Awareness Month
The Florida Department of
Health. (DOH) joins the Brain
Injury Association of Florida in
promoting National Brain Injury
Awareness Month. Each year
in Florida, approximately 3,000
individuals sustain a moderate-
to-severe traumatic brain injury
(TBI). A TBI.occurs every 23
seconds and leads to more than
one million emergency room
visits each year.
"Brain injuries and its effects
are rarely the topics at the dinner
table or in casual conversations
so, our goal is to make Florid-
ians more aware of the tragic
consequences of brain injuries,"
said DOH Secretary M. Rony
Francois, M.D., M.S.P.H., Ph.D.
"The Department 'of Health is
ready to inform the .public on
ways to reduce the risks of brain
injuries.", .
Automobile crashes are the,
most. frequent cause 'of these
life-changing injuries, followed
by falls and acts of violence.
According to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), males are 1.5 times as
likely as females to sustain a
TBI, and the two age groups at
the highest risk for a TBI are 0
to 4-year-1ods and 15 to 19-N ear-
bids. It is estimated that 5.3 mil-
lion Americans currently have
a long-term or lifelong need
for help to perform activities of
daily living as a result of having
sustained a TBI.
In a 2004 report issued by the
CDC for 1995-2001. "at least 1:4
million TBIs occur in the United
States each year." Brain injury
and concussions are a silent epi-
demic. According to the CDC,
Florida has upwards .of 20,000
brain injuries per year. Cogni-
tive problems including memoryN
and problem solving, managing
stress and improving job skills
can be a lifelong challenge for
those with a TBI. It occurs'more
often than breast cancer, HIV/
AIDS, multiple sclerosis and
spinal ,cord injuriesJ combined.
Despite this fact, many Ameri-
cans are not aware of this public
health problem or that preven-
tion is the only cure..
DOH recommends Floridans
follow the safety) measures be-
low to prevent brain injuries:
'*.Be, a safe Floridain!. Always
wear your seat belt.
When biking, always wear a
helmet.
Never, ever, shake a baby
Secure' throw rugs in your
home to prevent slips and.falls.

Laura Pedersen Teague. Laura
and her mother, Charlotte
Pedersen, opened the local
florist and gift shop in October
of last year.
Laura, a local young women
who graduated from Trenton
High School in 2000, said that
one of the main' reasons for
opening the shop is so her
daughter can stay with her. The
other reason is that she truly
loves arranging flowers. She
enjoys the creative possibilities
the business offers. Much of the
time Laura puts her talents to
work creating specialty
bouquets -or- arrangements.
Some of. her extra special
customized work includes such
items as sling shots and deer
. horns. Laura's mother Charlotte
is also a partner in the venture.
Charlotte gre% up in
. Okeechobee and moved to
Trenton in 1979.
Her career as a florist started
"ihile still in high school. Laura
% as part of a program offered at
that time through the
agricultural technology program-
at Trenton high school. After
completing the ag program she
entered the ag cooperate e
prog ram which allows students
to work half a day whilee
attending school the. other half,
da3. After completmg high
school she ent to work full
time as a floral designer. Laura
said, "I found my trade through
the co- op program at Trenton
High.". '


Forever Flowers is located in
the cheerful yellow building at
721 East Wade Street in
Trenton across from Jenkins
FRM on Hwy. 26. The business
is not only a' full service florist
but also a gift shop which
features such items as MaggieB
purses and baby '.cameo
clothing.
If -you visit the flower shop
just after lunch you may catch
Laura or Charlotte rocking
Lania to sleep. You will also
witness three generations ;of
happy girls spending the day
together doing hat the\ do

designs and taking care of a
lucky little girl."

environmental degradation to
earth as well as physical risks
to humans.
This will be an excellent

Log Cabin Quilters
Log Cabin Quilters met
Thursday, March 16, at the Levy
County Quilt Museum. Two
quilts were put together and one
goes back to New York and we
hope when they come back in
the fall, it will be quilted. Three
members from the Joyful Hearts
Quilters came to pick up their
quilts and crafts we put in the
fair for them. We saw blue. red,
and white ribbons on them and
we are very proud of our sister
club.
Mike Brannon came up from
Camp Caruth to have lunch and
pick up a quilt that we donated to
them to hang. We will be going
down March 25th to visit and
have dinner. It is always a fun
day and we look forward to see-
ing our many friends.
Our Watermelon Quilt is al-
most finished and we are taking
donations on it. It will be given
away at the festival in June.
Lunch was so good today. We
had German meatballs, chicken
pot pie, cheese and mac, col-
lards, spaghetti. biscuits, chili,
potato salad, coconut pie. orange
cake, and so much more., We
had 24 members and seven visi-.
tors present.

Monticello became the county
:seat of Jefferson County when
Florida was, still a territory.
After Florida was admitted
as a state in 1845, a Jefferson
County planter. William Mosley,
became the first Governor of
Florida. Visitors were attracted
to Monticello because of its
%warm climate, beautiful rolling
hills and "pine air" which %\as
thought to be therapeutic.
It is still therapeutic to stroll
among Florida's finest collection
of early 19th century residential
architecture. Showcased among


blooming camellias are a number
of Greek Revival, Classic
Revival, Queen Anne, Italianate
and. Victorian homes that have
made the tour a favorite with
"new" visitors since its inception
40 years ago. -
Among the historic buildings,
Dixie Plantation was planned
by John Russell Pope who
also designed the Jefferson
Memorial, the National Archives
and the National Gallery of Art
in Washington, D.C. The house
is an excellent example of
neoclassical architecture.
The Dunri House, built in
1890, is an example of Queen
Anne style. Very few changes
have been made to the original
building. Spectacular wood
detailing may ber seen in the
home; ; Few changes have
been made to Christ Episcopal
Church built in- 1885, and it,
still functions as a vibrant
congregation. The church is
also on the walking tour. -
The John Denham House is a
Victorian frame house built in
1888 bN John Denham. a pioneer
settler from Scotland. One of the
home's distinguishing features is
an octagonal cupola.
In contrast is the Beshears
lovely and unusual home, built
in 1875. Tennessee flagstone is


used on the front porch, Italian
ceramic tile covers the interior
floors and a large fieldstone
fireplace is the focal point of
the family room. The Beshears'
home boasts one of the largest
live oak trees in the county.
Tour hours are from 10:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday.
and 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on
Sunday. Tickets will be on sale
downtown at the Monticello.
Opera House and the :Wirick-
Simmons House. Tickets may
be purchased at Dixie Plantation.
in the country.
So put on your walking shoes
but please leave the high heels at
home. In order to protect these
historic structures, tour visitors
are asked to refrain from wearing
high-heeled, shoes that might
damage the wooden floors.
While visitingg Monticello,
be sure to check out the local.
merchants, downtown shops
featuring antiques and treasures.
All funds ; collected from the
tour are used to continue the
restoration projects of the
Jefferson Counts Historical
Association in their efforts to,
collect and preserve the rich
historic heritage of Jefferson'
County. For ticket information

Disclosure
- Simply put, Discl'sure ,means
that a Seikr of Real property
must. disclose all facts which,
affect the value of that property to
potential Buyers. In addition
Realtors have the same legal
requirement of disclosure.,
- A Seller will fill out a form
known as a "Sellers Real Property
Disclosure". This form is kept in
-the office of their Realtor, and is
given ,to prospective Buyers when
requested, or once a contract is
received.
- This disclosure goes over
everything from where the
mailbox is located, to actual
issues with the home, such'as roof'
leaks, plumbing leaks, electrical
issues, and anything that the
Seller has knowledge of that will
affect the value of the Property.
- The Realtor also must inspect
the property and point out items
they notice which may affect the
value of the Property. In addition,
when a realtor has knowledge of
potential development, or other
changes in the area, they must
notify both parties as these
changes may have an effect on the
property's value.
- There may be items that the
Seller and the Realtor have no
knowledge of. I always
recommend buyers to have a
professional Home Inspection
performed. The Home Inspector
will go through every nook and
cranny in a home to find defects.
For a list of Home inspectors in
our area, visit my homepage
www.willgillespie.net. ,
- Items that are not required to be
disclosed, are deaths in the home,
whether by natural causes, murder
or suicide. The fact that a past
owner has AIDS or HIV is not
required to be disclosed and the
fact that a sexual predator living in
an area is not required to be
disclosed. However you can obtain
this information by going to the
website .of your local sheriffs
office, or the.FDLE website.

By Anna Wild
On Saturday, March 4, 2006,

with the tremendous success.
The tournament attracted first
time skeet tournament shoot-
ers and experienced shooters

individuals had pre-registered
and had 104 people participate
in the tournament. Winners took
home plaques to display their
accomplishments and those who
are members of the National
Sporting Clay Association had
the chance to advance in their
class. The tournament started
at 9:00 a.m. and shooters en-
joyed beautiful weather. .After
the tournament was concluded.
everyone was invited to enJo\
a tasty lunch and then enjoyed
a shoonne exhibition by World
Class Shooter John Sarter htite.
Mr. Sanrerxhite lies in St.
Cloud and %as happy to come
and represent the National Rifle
Association and entertain other
shooters with his shooting skills
and give everyone the chance
to see how fun shoot mi can
be. Mr. Satterwhite has been
shooting since he was a young
boy and his father took the tune
to make sure he understood the
serious side of firearms. The\
are not to\s and both %oung
and old alike must understand
there are safe way.s to handle
firearms and unsafe. He has an
impressive background which
includes his career in the U.S.
Air Force on the All Air Force


Shotgun Team in which he won
the "All Armed Forces Champi-
onship" in 1968 after entering
the Air Force in 1967. After his
term in the Air Force the Army
Reserve asked him to join up so-
they could have him participate
in tournaments for them, so he
did. He won the World Shooting
Championship in '74 and '79,
won t wo gold medals in the Pan
American Games in '75 and '79,.
and brought home the gold in the
US Olympics in both '76 and'79.
Over' his career he has won 12
medals, six of which %%ere gold.
He has been an Athlete Advisor
for the US Olympic Committee
Shooting Sports, which was an
honor for him since to be an
advisor you must be nominated
by Nour peers. Now he helps to
spread the word to young people
about how\ fun shooting sports
can be and the importance of
handling a gun safely.

Gilchrist County
Commissioners'
Report
(Continued from Page One)
erty.
Commissioner Thomas ex-
plained that he had contacted
Dukes Quality Hay, Inc. to get
estimates on grass sprigging,
fertilizer spreading, and applica-
tion of hay to cover one half
mile of shoulder and into the
ditch banking on NW 93rd Lane.
This application is expected to
reduce the erosion caused by
heavy rains. The commissioner
explained that the cost of doing
this was estimated to be $2.800
and he and the residents of 93rd
Lane would hope that this cor-
rects the problem.
The board asked the Road
Superintendent if he felt that
this would take care of the prob-
lems involving that portion of
NW 93"' Lane. Mr. Watson ex-
plained that he was not sure
whether this would correct the
problem, but this is something
that needs to be done on this
road. Commissioner Thomas
made a motion for the board to
approve this proposal and
Commissioner Mitchell Gentry
.ga\e a second to the proposal.
The board voted 4-1 in favor of
this action with Commissioner
Randy Durden voting No on
this action.

Standing Up For
Individual Rights
Florida citizens have the
constitutional right to keep and
bear arms for self-protection and
Florida law specifically guaran- I
tees the right to transport and
carry firearms in private vehicles
for lawful purposes.- Those
rights are well established in law
and in public policy.
Yet some corporate giants are
violating those indi% idual rights.
claiming a constitutional right to
control business property, when
no such blanket right exists.
Corporate lobbyists have even
claimed businesses .have the
right to ban any personal prop- .
er) inside private vehicles from
. "guns" to "Bitles "to "'bananas."
That is nonsense.
Government, at all levels.
heavily regulates business prop-
erty use from zoning to building
codes to public accommodations
and laws against bigotry and
discrimination. This is no dif-
ferent.
SB-206 and HB-129 were
filed to protect the individual,.
constitutionally guaranteed
rights of citizens. The legisla-
tion does not interfere with the
employer-employee relationship
except to stop illegal searches
of private vehicles and protect
employees, who want to exer-
cise a constitutional right, from
abusive anti-gun corporations
bent upon discriminating against
them.
The right to transport and
carry firearms in a vehicle means
you can store that firearm locked
in your vehicle in a parking lot'
"\hen you go grocery shopping,
to the doctor's office, to a mo\ ie,
to visit a sick friend in the hos-,. ,
pital, to the dry cleaners, to the
shoe store or anywhere else
people commonly travel.
Constitutional rights do not
end, and, indeed must not,.
%\hen you drive into a commer-
cial parking lot. And business
practices and policies do not
supersede the constitutional or
statutory rights of individual
customers and employees.
Courts have ruled that "an
at-will employee may not be
terminated for exercising con-
stitutional rights." But big
businesses in Florida are trying
to place themselves above the
laq and abope the Constitu-
tion. And, tragically, some
are reported to have executed
searches of private vehicles and
fired employees for exercising a
constitutional right.
This bill stops that illegal,
abusive, and clearly unconstitu-
tional conduct.
The cold hard truth is. gun free
parking lots are safe havens for
criminals. Businesses that ban
guns in private vehicles in park-
ing lots are placing the lives of
their customers and employees
in danger. That conduct is repre-
hensible and must be prohibited.
Passage. of, SB-206 and
.'HB-129 would put an end to
corporate giants trampling the
Freedom of law-abiding citizens
who take responsibility for their
own safety and by its practices,
extorting employees by forcing
them to chose between their jobs
or their lives.
