Can a lawyer, or a budding lawyer understand this law, and tell me if the a city, or town cannot remove a monument because of this statue.

[ClearCase_guy]

The law is “whatever”.

This has nothing to do w/statues like antifa is tearing down.

These are “monuments” erected at grave sites as in cemeteries. Not the type of things you have in public squares.

There’s law in this country?

[BenLurkin]

Doesn’t mean a thing Nothing. Laws have ceased to mean anything.

We are at the mercy of black-robed egoists for whom the only ‘law’ is their subjective sense of an ideal outcome.

The heading is specific to graves and dead bodies. Unless a monument or statue is specifically related to a dead body or a grave, the statute has no impact on whether or not it is removed, defaced, or damaged. This protects the gravestones, statues in cemeteries, statues in and on tombs, etc. It will not protect monuments in parks, public squares, memorials even if the person is dead, or somewhere in the vicinity unless that statue is in the cemetery where the body is buried. Then, it probably needs to be in close proximity to the grave.

It still won't stop ANTIFA and BLM from desecrating graves but it gives one a tool to prosecute after they destroy them.

The way I read it, this statute refers to graves and grave monuments and decorations. It does not apply to civic monuments. So, if Grants Tomb was in Florida it would be illegal to defile it but a statue of Grant in a town square would not be covered by that law.

A little off topic but still about Florida laws.

The FHP supervisor who wrote the memo telling State Troopers to write two tickets per hour and then claimed that was not a quota resigned today.

You can’t just say something does not violate the law, then violate it. Florida law specifically bans quotas.

Just think that this country acted appalled when the Taliban went on their destroy everything spree. Maybe a sizeable portion of America had no problem with it. ISIS started doing the same thing and there was very little outrage and it was suppressed by the media. It just took a pathetic excuse to release the inner Taliban in the leftist scum though. There is no end in sight and the best possible outcome is that this madness burns itself out. Worthless Government,Tyrannical Judges and Eunuch Law Enforcement refuse to stop it.

[Bullish]

Any and all laws that hurt the tender little snowflakes feelings are now to be ignored.

Looks like they are talking about burial monuments. I don’t think they are talking about statues if that’s what you’re suggesting.
