    DeSantis signs ‘anti-riot’ bill into law, sparking outcry from Democrats, civil rights groups
    https://www.orlandosentinel.com/poli...2xq-story.html
    It also makes blocking a highway a felony offense.

    “Just think about it, you’re driving home from work, and all of a sudden, you have people out there shutting down a highway, and we worked hard to make sure that didn’t happen in Florida,” DeSantis said. “They start to do that, [then] there needs to be swift penalties.”
    The law also creates a broad category for misdemeanor arrest during protests, and anyone charged under that provision will be denied bail until their first court appearance. DeSantis said he wanted that to prevent people from rejoining ongoing protests.

    It creates a new felony crime of “aggravated rioting” that carries a sentence of up to 15 years in prison and a new crime of “mob intimidation.”

    The measure also protects Confederate monuments along with other memorials, statues and historic property.

    “We also saw around the country people toppling monuments of people like George Washington,” DeSantis said. “This bill protects all monuments in Florida. You have no right to go in and take down monuments,

    because tourists just love to visit places that allow rioting, with no cash bail for arrestees?

    DeSantis is pretty shrewd, though. If a Republican has to win next time, we could do worse. It's good to see the right at least starting to lean back toward rational people.
    THROW THE PEOPLE THAT BREECHED THE CAPITAL IN JAIL. But jail the people that loot burn and riot in jail and for sure throw the people that attacked the FEDERAL COURTHOUSE in Portland in jail. I'd have much more respect for the left if they were for that.

    They haven't seen how many people are really pissed off. They are oblivious. That can work to Americans' advantage.

    How many Spring Breakers go to your state, faggot? Derp!
    They all come here. That's not stopping any time soon, unless stuff like the Miami mayor did happens statewide.
    PS: I'm a tell all y'all this and you can take it to the bank:

    The State of Florida WILL put you in prison.
    You screw up here? You're going to prison. The State of Florida LOVES to put you in prison.
    Just ask some of those Katrina-fleeing New Orleans cockroach hoodlums that came here in 2004-2005..they're still in F.S.P. with a few years to go.

    They got away with their shenanigans in Loosiana. Flawda do not play that. Not at all!

    Doubt what? That Americans aren't gonna soon get tired of these riots and violent protests and start shooting when they loot private businesses?
    You don't hear a thing about the bastard that shot that guy trying to protect his friend's business. Not a peep. But it's coming...

    no it's not "just as easy" -you cant just pack up and drive there- and we get tourist from all over the world.
    People dont want lawlessness, even if you consider that to be a "cracker" position

    Drive there? People drive to holiday destinations?
    I don't even bother renting a car when I get to one.
    I'm on vacation. I take cabs, thank you.

    They know us rural/small townspeople won't take their shit. We protect ourselves and our neighbors. And we have the guns....
