    Aside from the fact Florida has often been a sweaty shithole, the article was a political opinion piece by the pastor of Faith of Florida.

    "It is in the spirit of, and respect for, this inherited legacy that Faith in Florida has been hosting “Souls to the Polls” events across the state that bring communities together with food, music and activities to mobilize them to vote. My faith and the history of those who have come before me have taught me that all people, regardless of what they look like or where they come from, have the right to exercise their right to vote without being harmed. And we have the right and ability to come together as a people and community to mobilize one another to vote.

    Voting is a fundamental right and certainly isn’t one we will forfeit when everything is on the line. We may not have all of law enforcement on our side, but history, indisputably, is. Our future generations will look to us to right all the wrongs of the last four years, and we will continue to work tirelessly to do right by them.
    "

    Her efforts to mobilize voters is good, but making it look like all Miami police are racist assholes is wrong.

    While it's sad a police officer was politicizing his job, note the police officer was quickly condemned by Miami PD for his action. This means the police officer's action was an aberration, not typical of the Miami PD.

    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.

    Why is it your comments have nothing to do with the topic of the article? What is it you are on? You've never been to Florida have you?

    Why do you think my post had nothing to do with the topic? I addressed both the author and Miami PD? Nothing....yet. I lived there for 12 years; 3 years at NAS Jacksonville, 8 years at NAS Whiting Field and 1 year Tampa. I also worked out of Miami for 6 years and spent a lot of time with my GF in Key West. Why do you ask? Do you live in Florida?

    12 years? Holy crap have been to therapy for self hate issues? I lived in Davie for just over 3 years and got the fuck out. Fake dentists in storage units. Fed task forces doing clean up, Having to get a mechanical inspection to get car insurance. Counterfeit money...twice. Haggling over bait prices. Yup it is a shithole

    The moment you left is the moment it no longer was a shithole. Can you figure out why?

    Work. I left when I had the chance, but thanks for the personal attacks. It proves you have very little else to add.
