Make a sign that says “Vote Republican”.

See if it gets classified as “hate speech”. Probably would.

Not surprising. The RINO’s in our Legislature actually floated an idea for a bill to make criticizing/disparaging Desantis a crime. The TDS of those losers (and many here on FreeRepublic) is palpable. And, telling.

Hate speech is disagreeing with the libtards.

https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2023/269:

Prohibits person from distributing onto private property any material for purpose of intimidating or threatening owner, resident, or invitee;
prohibits person from willfully & maliciously harassing, threatening, or intimidating another person based on person’s wearing or displaying of any indicia relating to any religious or ethnic heritage;
requires violations be reported as hate crimes;
prohibits display or projection of images onto building, structure, or property without permission;
prohibits person who willfully enters campus of state university or Florida College System institution for purpose of threatening or intimidating another person from remaining on such campus after being warned to depart.

I placed a couple gospel tracts on private property, one being the car of a lesbian, and which could be construed to be a hate crime (intimidating or threatening) by the Left.

Right motive, bad law.

What the heck? Speech, even speech you don’t like, is protected under the 1st amendment. They won’t get away with legislating that away, and will Rino Ron even sign it? And even if he does, wouldn’t the courts throw this out on it’s face?

Hate crimes lead to thought crimes and a kind of ‘minority report’ ‘star chamber’, and that’s the type of thing that led to Jews being herded onto box cars.

This must NOT ever become law in America.

In at least one elementary school they agreed to remove the American flag inside because it made illegal aliens uncomfortable.

And the Bible when quoted on some social media can be identified as hate speech.

I think this was intended to stop the level of harassment conservative speakers at universities or any non-leftist approved people anywhere receive. Death threats, posters of them being hanged or killed in some other way, etc.

I think death threats are already illegal, but the law is never enforced if the threats are made against conservatives.

They just need to make sure conservatives can get protection, but FL has a lot of Dem controlled cities, not to mention the radical left universities such as USF in leftist Gainesville. I think they believed that this will force the police to protect unpopular speakers (that is, conservatives) and prevent on-line and in-person harassment. It will make the police take it seriously as a crime.

Having death threats in your mailbox, either physical mailbox or electronic email box, shouldn’t be happening but it is.

Comment under Cernovich's post on Twitter:

"Great idea to make WORDS on PAPER a crime worthy of a violent response. I can feel the freedom coursing through the sewers."

Unless you’re part of the abc mafia or a member of the racism industry, then you get to have people fired, close down businesses or walk free from assaulting a normal person who disagrees with your perversion. (not you, Bullish) Until the “hate crimes” faction gets a taste of its own medicine, we’ll never get rid of their policies that are infesting our courts and providing the government a way to use double jeopardy against the citizens. Maybe it takes legislation that turns the tables to get thought-crime policies up to the Supreme Court and taken out of our judicial system and mindset.

...Harassment or intimidation based on religious ethnic heritage.

Harassment or intimidation for what ever reason should be treated equally under the law.
