It’d be nice if this Bill was duplicated in all States.
Bravo for Florida!

“The problem with this bill is that the language is so overbroad and vague ... that it captures anybody who is peacefully protesting at a protest that turns violent through no fault of their own,” said Kara Gross, the legislative director at ACLU Florida. “Those individuals who do not engage in any violent conduct under this bill can be arrested and charged with a third-degree felony and face up to five years in prison and loss of voting rights. The whole point of this is to instill fear in Floridians.”
As opposed to ANTIFA and BLM who just have picnics. Time to RICO these @ssholes.

Maxine better stay out of Fla. She would be arrested for inciting a riot. Oh wait, Maxine come on down.

The beauty of Florida law is that the governor can remove a sheriff from office.
If DeSantis were to declare a statewide emergency and issue orders to LE in the state, any sheriff, chief or other LEO who fails to follow those orders can be removed from office.
DeSantis could appoint a local replacement (as he did with Broward county) or dispatch a State Marshal to take control.
With the large number of militia volunteers available in Florida, even large scale insurrection in the big cities can be quickly subdued by a sheriff using militia volunteers from other counties.
Crap like the savagery of the Liberty City riots would be shut down over night.
However if people sit on their cans like goppers and don’t display solid active support for such a policy forget it - we might as well have another Bush flunky in charge.
That is what the rino swine have in mind for the next election.

They called the Kennedy compound the Southern Whitehouse.
Guess that makes Mar-A-Lago the Southern Whitehouse too.

Was Sheriff Israel ever re-instated?
If so, then he is on the top of the Bad Sheriff list.

The bill, which passed mostly along partisan lines, has been criticized by Democrats and civil rights groups as unconstitutional for infringing on the First Amendment’s right to protest. They are correct. The right of the people to angrily assemble and break things for a redress of grievances.
To: Bikkuri
Rubens was a painter of Renaissance Art........mostly depictions of Biblical scenes.
