Per Georgia packing: "If you are not ineligible for a license to carry, you can carry in any private passenger motorized vehicle, provided that the owner (or other legal representative of the property) has not forbid possession of weapons or long guns on the property." Since 18-20 year olds are not eligible to carry they wouldn't be allowed to carry in a vehicle. However, it appears this may only apply to someone else's vehicle, as a different portion of the law allows for anyone who can legally possess a firearm to carry one in their vehicle.

Jawja but I'm biased of course. The recent changes in pro-gun laws have pushed us over plus we don't have S. FL pushing us Purple.

We may have Miami, but you have Atlanta. Both target rich environments with plenty of opportunity to practice your blade at 45 skills against real life muggers and thuggers. GA does have income tax so less ammo.
Course I've never had trouble in Miami but when I was in Atlanta for a trade show in September I nipped two mugging attempts in the bud. Never had to show, just look at 'em and hook a thumb under my jacket. I give Georgia the win because there you will have many chances to exercise your gunfreedom rights. |

No need for a pissing contest on which state is better. We get along as states better than almost every other state in the union, and both have amazing sweet tea. Georgia has some better gun laws, but we're not far behind.

^exactly. GA and FL are like brothers, both with excellent laws and god senses of humor. We who live in either place should count ourselves lucky to have good neighbors haha

I like North Florida, it's mostly rural and conservative. I live near the FL/GA state line, I prefer to live and work in Florida because there is no state income tax, when I used to drive across the state line into Georgia to work I was paying around 5-6% per year in state income tax. View Quote My son lives north of Atlanta. He tells me the property taxes are about the same as in Florida as is the sales tax but on top of that he has to pay the income tax, which is a big hit for him. Every time we go up to visit him the traffic is absolutely a nightmare around Atlanta. I told him not move out of Florida but he wouldn't listen. I have family that lives in Monticello, just a few miles south of the Georgia border. I love visiting them. I should move there but I have too many roots in Polk county. |

Georgia does not allow exploding dd's ,. Florida is shaped like a penis. I have lived in both places .

My uncle (from Thomasville) use to have a saying. He said "Georgia was the asshole of the South because of all the Yankee shit that passes through on the way to Florida". When I was a kid I use to think he was commenting on Georgia until I got older and learned about Yankees and then it was apparent the comment had nothing to do with either Florida or Georgia. |
