CNN decided to tweet about Florida state laws regarding firearms after Wednesday’s shooting and let people know that they would not need a permit to conceal carry a rifle or shotgun in the state.
“In Florida, you don’t need a permit to conceal carry a rifle or shotgun,” they wrote, “although you do need it to conceal carry a handgun.”
• In Florida, you don't need a permit to conceal carry a rifle or shotgun, although you do need it to conceal carry a handgun
• You can buy as many guns as you want at one time, because Florida doesn't regulate that eitherhttps://t.co/EGpPSeO0g5

Twitter users who know a bit more about guns than CNN quickly pointed out that you can’t exactly conceal carry a long gun.

That's probably because it's pretty much impossible to do. How does CNN tweet about guns and not understand this simple common sense point? pic.twitter.com/eSYNfiM0KX
