"We are gonna do what we need to do to make sure that evil doesn't triumph in the state of Florida." So you're resigning, Ron?

Ron DeSantis said “targeting people due to their race has no place in the state of Florida.”

Translation: "Targeting white people for accusations of racism just because they support policies that harm people of color has no place in the state of Florida."

"...A bullet don’t know a party.”

But, if the gun that bullet's fired from is covered in swastikas, it sure as hell is going to know which color to hit.

This is a new tradition that I fully support. Let him be booed constantly, no matter where he is or what he is doing. Night on the town with his wife? Boo that fucker. Campaigning? Boo that fucker. Strangling teen girls or puppies down by the river? Boo that fucker. Shopping? Boo that fucker.

He should especially be booed in circumstances that make him “smile”, as the humanoids call it. That terrifying rictus reflex should probably be killed with fire but booing will have to do.

It's like former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder getting booed at a restaurant at the height of the Flint water crisis when all he wanted to do was take his wife out to a nice dinner on her birthday. Some incivility ensued.

What an incredible display of hypocrisy....if he wasn't so far down in the polls and a national laughingstock, I would call it a foretaste of his administration...one in which Old Glory will be replaced as the national flag by the Stars and Bars.

Yee-haw!

These murders are just one more thing on the list that Florida teachers will be fired for mentioning because they make the parent of some white kid uncomfortable.

One thing I've started to notice about DeSantis is that he has a very loud tone that he seldom seems to stray from. The word that comes to my mind is "braying."

I wonder if that stems from his time in the Marines, where yelling is probably considered "command presence," or some such thing.

A voice like that is useful for talking over people and addressing subordinates, especially when you don't respect them much. But it doesn't help him overcome his image as an unfeeling talking-points bot.

TBF, I didn't think he was "booed off the stage," but I do think the Black lady saved his ass. I wonder if he thanked her afterward. (Haha, I don't really.)

I feel the need to clear up your military service comment. Ol' Pudding Fingers wasn't a Marine. He was, much to my personal shame, a sailor.

Good. I am sick of people like DeSantis and Pence, who have to give their Tots and Pears when shit like this happens but then stir up the pot with their US against THEM BS 364 days of the rest of the year. They are the reason why I have to hear crap like "Slavery is no more, get over it!" or "Slavery had its benefits for you people", while the same folks ignore Jim Crow, red lining and systemic racism, which still has an impact today! Hello generational trauma! My thoughts on the glorious Booing: https://youtu.be/sTRrSYX49vs?si=eUXdQaWteWxVrLuN

Hay you guyzes, remember how Bush the Lesser used to stumble and fumble and phumper and generally sound like a person with a recent severe head injury... MOST of the time?

Except when he started talking about WAR and DRONE STRIKES and KICKING PEOPLE'S ASSES AND TAKING THEIR OIL, because that was the only time he was ever sincere and actually believed what he was saying?

Yeah, thought of that for some reason.

SHAME on that councilwoman for stepping in and bailing him out with those RIDICULOUS platitudes. LET HIM TAKE HIS MEDICINE FOR ONCE!!!

I agree--that is the issue. Reminds me of When Obama pardoned criminals who harmed the US--this kind of crap is not gracious--it actually harms the body politic and victims as well. You can't absolve people from a crime or wrongdoing committed against someone else--only that wronged person can give absolution. Stepping in when someone is getting just desserts for their actions helps no one, not even the guilty party.

OK Mo- sorry, I've been triggered by this shooting and MY belief that Pittman is getting unfairly slimed because DeSantis is such an awful shit. I disagree, but I'm sure you are sincere too...sorry again.

Me too. Sorry I got grumpy. I had a long, bad night Ubering and should have stayed away from commenting altogether. Took it out on you and I shouldn't have. I'm a dope. Sincerest apologies, man.

Yes, the guy who is shutting down colleges left and right, and giving poison pills to every school library will somehow protect THIS SPECIFIC college...

Even though the shooting did not take place on the campus; it took place in a store.

Well I'm sure he will vet some upstanding citizens group to help provide security. what could go wrong with having volunteer 3%'ers,Oathbreakers or some random Floriduh man militia group standing guard at a HBCU?

I'm wondering if the security guard who turned him away was white. If he was black, I figure he'd just be Victim #1 in his attack, but a white person...
