This surfacing after Gaetz decided to weigh in on the Shane Gillis SNL performance ...
A twopane meme: "Do you stand with Shane Gillis?" then, a tweet by Catturd™️, "Dear liberals ... Comedians tell these things called jokes. If you're too fragile to hear jokes. It's not the comedian's fault. It's yours."

Matt Gaetz' comments on a fb post:

"Comedians tell jokes. That is the job.

Some people hear a joke and get upset. They want the person off the stage or off the show. The standard used to be that audiences could handle different material. Now one side treats certain topics as off limits. The other side still laughs and moves on.

Shane Gillis is one example. His material gets pushback from people who say they cannot handle it. The rest of the audience decides for themselves. Most people know a joke is not a policy speech. They can laugh or skip it.

The choice is simple. Support the right to tell jokes even when some people do not like them. Or demand that comedy only say what one group approves. Voters can see which approach leaves room for normal entertainment. The stage is still open for the people who want to hear it."

They did this man's family and community wrong, on top of murdering a young Black man for just holding a gun in his own home. #OkaloosaCounty atlantablackstar.pulse.ly/edh5t6pm06
Roger Fortson's mother says an all white jury never gave her son a fair shot before acquitting the former Florida deputy who killed him, and she exclusively told Atlanta Black Star what happened to her body when the verdict was read

Spotted in a Raceway in Destin, Florida. 👎
A T-shirt on a rack of many other colorful T. Shirts inside of a raceway, convenience store.
 The shirt says gone fishin in large white letters and there is a device which is covered in the Confederate flag.

Okaloosa SO officially removing Flock cameras and the sheriff crying about it. We need to keep pushing to remove other invasive state surveillance devices as well.
Page 1 OSCO statement saying they will remove Flock cameras in Okaloosa county but are leaving the door open for LPR technology in the future. 🙄Page 2 OSCO statement saying they will remove Flock cameras in Okaloosa county but are leaving the door open for LPR technology in the future. 🙄The FDOT memo ordering the removal of Flock cameras on state highways and the tail end of the Okaloosa County Sheriff Office statement crying because they are losing a favorite toy.

The safest neighborhoods are those with the fewest police. The safest societies are those who have evolved beyond threatening citizens with violence to enforce the behaviors the government finds useful.
A blue sky post by Adam kinzinger that says "there's zero excuse for police in a free society to wear a mask" with the to wear a mask part scratched out in red underneath it says, "cowards".

I think this illustrates the situation well.

Never forget.
Screenshots of 4 tweets. The first is from Libs of TikTok that says, this is war in all caps. In the upper right hand is a tweet from Andrew Tate that simply says Civil War. The lower left hand is Gunther Eagleman.
It says They've declared war. The fourth tweet is from Elon Musk. It says If they won't leave us in peace,
Then our choice is fight or die.

Daily sad:
A Tampa Bay Times front page snippet showing an article with the headline, "Immigrants face moral test." The byline states, "Officers will weigh community standing and conduct when considering citizenship applications." followed by the text, which is too small to be legible on most screens.

Some perspective from a local regarding the Pulse memorial
Softserved Gentleman is feeling disgusted.
repotsnodSm5i96u2ft9i02f0f1c1cttch7iga8211ial5t1ml810333tlhf  ·
Pulse Nightclub was a death trap, and it was NEVER a secret. 
Upset over a CrossWalk that had nothing to do with Pulse? Why not use that energy to advocate for the survivors/victims/families that are STILL fighting to not be used as pawns- to benefit a "memorial" spectacle that Orlando  has been trying to build). ALL while funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars into the pockets of the city and the "foundation" that doesn't even benefit survivors. This CrossWalk has gained national coverage and WHY?! WHY is literally everyone dismissing the feelings that those involved are, at minimum, entitled to?
The city of Orlando has continuously/purposely benefited from those personally involved to put Orlando "on the map"-- To "show" that the city is "advocating" or "stands by" the community... They continue to hold "fundraisers" and "events" by calling it a "call of action" or "peaceful protest"--It's an act and I'm fucking sick of it. 
Pulse Nightclub was a death trap, and management KNEW this. There have been countless requests for records, as it has been public knowledge that the venue violated MANY codes. Now, we are currently waiting for the State Attorney to conduct their investigation and hold accountable Poma’s and OnePulse's manipulation..
So, you're mad about a CrossWalk? Imagine the ongoing trauma that those personally involved have consistently endured for the past decade. 
*Pulse was also MY "safe" place. I was on my way to the venue that night and decided to turn around to tend to my (then) puppy...And to be so disrespected and taken advantage of is absolutely disgusting.

Florida state troopers are working with Border patrol all over the panhandle today to stop vehicles with construction equipment and detain people on highways and busy areas from Pensacola to Freeport.
Pictures posted in comments on Facebook, border patrol and state troopers on the side of the road, pulling over people with construction equipment.
One commenter says in spanish that according to the person that they talked to.
We should be looking for these law enforcement groups around for one.

He blocked this account, so for reference, fuck this guy, in particular.
A blue sky post by john roberson that says it's such a sweet thought to remember that when the seas rise, florida will be the first to sink quoted by florida panhandle, right wing watch saying this musty ass sentiment needs to stop. The thread continues saying, oh You think you're interested in people's rights or fighting fascism, but you're making jokes about the state where we're fighting on the front lines in the trenches? gtfo. Trans, Black, and brown people live here and we're fighting for our fucking lives (and yours too for that matter), asshole.
