Florida GOP Ends Prohibition On Slungshots
Scott signed measure HB 4009 that deletes part of state law which has prohibited the manufacturing or sale of a maritime tool known as a slungshot.
The slungshot consists of a weight affixed to the end of a long cord of being wound into the center of a knot called a monkey’s fist. Although the slungshot is a maritime tool, it became an improvised and very effective weapon, widely used by street gangs in the 19th Century.

The bill removed slungshot from the definition of a concealed weapon and also lifts a prohibition of the sale or transfer of a slungshot to a minor. here

Florida GOP Tweak HIV Numbers
The figures now show a slight decline in new cases from 2011, when Scott took office, to 2014. The previous report showed the number of new infections rising. here
----------
The previous tally from 2014 represented a significant uptick as diagnoses nationwide were declining. It was enough to make Florida the national leader in new HIV cases, an embarrassing distinction for the state, Gov. Rick Scott and the health department, and more importantly, a serious public health concern.
