DeSantis told looters, 'I would not want to chance that if I were you, given that we’re a Second Amendment state'
Taking to Twitter, MSNBC host Joy Reid bashed Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., for warning potential criminals against looting the evacuated homes of Hurricane Ian survivors in Florida, linking his statements to racist cops and politicians of the segregation era.
On Saturday, the host of MSNBC’s "The ReidOut" tweeted that DeSantis telling people not to loot and warning they might be shot by gun-carrying Floridians had the same tone as "segregationist Miami sheriff Walter E. Headley" infamously saying, "When the looting starts, the shooting starts" in the ’60s.
In addition, Reid’s tweet linked to an NPR article about the racist history, connecting it to vicious segregationists and anti-Black politicians such as Eugene "Bull" Conner. She mentioned how DeSantis’ words show he’s returned to that "form."

joy reid wants to loot too. Come on over joy …. Looters receive equal treatment !!!
NOW you’ve done it!
Your point is well taken..
So ehe’s admitting that the looters are all black?
“Joy, isn’t it racist to assume that the looters will be brown or black?”
...and there are no black business owners.
Let me see if I got this Joy.
You’re saying -
All looters are black because all blacks are criminals, and there are no black business owners to consider because there are no black owned businesses; as a race they are too lazy and stupid to run a successful business?
Call me crazy Joy, but that sounds A TAD racist.
Indeed
Joy Reid: Dumb as a box of rocks, but I’m insulting boxes of Rocks..
Joy Reid shows who she is racist against she also has self hate for being white.
So long as they’ll shoot a white looter as quickly as they’ll shoot a black, Hispanic or Asian looter, it’s not racist. The act of looting must have consequences. If the local law enforcement can’t deal with it peaceably because of the scale of widespread looting, homeowners and store owners must do what they must to protect their own with their personal firearms. Solution: Don’t loot. They won’t shoot.
Joy, if you want to see racism, look in the Fn mirror.
No! There are White Supremacists hiding under my bed! Waiting to pour bleach on my head or make me drop my sandwich! Help!
Brilliant comparison.
Wish I had written it!
