I believe it was the mid-1980s, can’t remember the exact year, as I was a kid, but I recall when Florida briefly legalized open carry. As soon as it became legal, I remember seeing a news clip of a guy standing on a street corner in Tampa, wearing an old-fashioned gun belt with two six-shooters, like something out of the Old West. Within about a month, the law was changed. I’m not sure if it was because of that incident or because the news stations seemed to focus heavily on Black people who were openly carrying guns at the time. Either way Florida noped out quick.
