Stanley Victor McDaniels was convicted under Florida's open carry ban after openly carrying a holstered handgun while holding a Constitution at a Pensacola intersection on July 4, 2022.
On Sept. 10, 2025, the First District Court of Appeal unanimously reversed his conviction, declaring Florida Statute 790.053 unconstitutional under the Second Amendment.
I recorded this interview with McDaniels in July 2022, and he discusses his arrest.
