The campaign coincides with a state law that enters into effect authorizing gun owners to shoot anyone in a public area who they believe threaten their safety.
The law, supported by the National Rifle Association (NRA), was approved by the state legislature in April. Governor
Jeb Bush described it as a 'good, common sense, anti-crime issue' when he signed it into law. His is a brother of US
President George W. Bush.
