For those that don't know; Fred Guttenberg, parent of a Parkland victim is a rising star in Florida's gun control circles.
From the website Heavy.com, Jessica McBride described him as “one of the strongest voices for changes to gun laws in the wake of the mass shooting.†He’s also a committee member for Ban Assault Weapons NOW.
Those are the people driving a petition initiative to amend the Florida Constitution and outlaw semi-automatic rifles.
Well, the small beach head that the gun grabbers have established in Florida Government is growing. Guttenberg has been selected by Nikki Fried to be part of her transitional team. He will be working hand in hand with other gun grabbers like Mary Barzee Flores, who Nikki Fried hired her as the Deputy Commissioner over Consumer Affairs, the department that runs Florida's CCW program. Guttenberg of course backed Fried and Flores.

So they really at the end of the day, this is who decides who does and does not get weapons. It’s a pretty unique role in Florida.â€
According to the Hartsburg News;
What exactly would Guttenberg's role be? Gun Control of course!The team will “help build a department that will respect the priority issues of the people and work hard to deliver results,†Fried said in a statement Friday. “Our transition team reflects the values of all Floridians.â€
So another person that wants to flat out go after the Second Amendment is now placed directly in control of Floridians constitutional rights. That's just great .Guttenberg said he “will play an active role in the gun side of things.â€
He will help “ensure this department is able to do what it’s supposed to do, to ensure every single Floridian who wants a gun goes through an appropriate background check before they get a permit. That’s the way it was supposed to work and it didn’t.†- Nikki Fried
