So today the fool in Tallahassee [View all]

Signed his favorite racist bill. It's the bill that he brought up during the summer when there were several BLM rallies and it didn't gain too much traction so he figured a way to bring it up after the Insurrection, citing that something like that would never happen in Florida.

When he signed it, he never even mentioned the Insurrection and unfortunately, I believe he did it in my County because the county sheriff was there give him a big pat on the back. He wanted to be sure to get this through before the results of the George Floyd murder is decided.

We had some locals who went up to be supportive in the Minneapolis area and unfortunately they ran into trouble. They have the story posted on the black lives matter Polk restoration Facebook page, if anyone is interested in reading about it. I'm keeping them in my prayers.
