Florida's new gun laws

I just read what I could find of the bill on Florida's web site. What concerns is that I read nothing about alcohol influence or provoking someone. Basically the new law allows me to start a fight in a bar by calling someone’s mother, wife or girlfriend a whore. If that person comes towards me in a threatening manner like would be a normal response I can shoot them.

The opportunity in this new bill to commit first-degree murder and kill random people is huge. Yelling at the opposing crowd in a sporting event could now get you shot.

While this bill does correct some absurd notions about my right to protect my family it is irresponsible in its support of random violence. A better written bill could be acceptable but this is fucking nuts.
