  I’m sorry but here is a prime example of the Republican party doing dishonest election tactics in Florida and the public masses falling for it. If you don’t have enough common sense and fall for such tactics, who is to blame then? tampabay.com/…/the-name-is-the-same-but-theyre-di…

    Most people assume politicians don’t lie. I know it’s absurd to think about but even people of middling intelligence still deserve rights.

      They do, but how many times do you need to stop someone from touching a hot stove before you let them learn their lesson the hard way?

        We shouldn’t be willing to let the house burn down to teach someone a lesson.

      Never trust a salesman, and a politician is just a salesman selling that he should be in charge of you.

      I thought everyone heard the saying as a child to not trust lawyers, politicians, and weathermen because they all lie.

  Majority of voters did, and keep on doing it.

      You have my sympathy, but not my compassion.

        Yea that’s fair. We are an embarrassment to the world right now but for us to fix it we need to be working together instead of carving ourselves up into more little tribes.

      Endlessly being told “you don’t understand” by commenters who only use tv-friendly and repeatable povs and barely try to mask their hate towards their fellow citizens gets awful tiring huh? I left R-town to get away from the bloodlust but .world folks are infested wit reddit 2.0 types

      Pretty sure if it were up to these people, the law would have never passed. And it would be repealed now.

        I didn’t vote for it, I didn’t want it, and just like the country I’m stuck with it. It’s acceptable to be an American and hate Trump and what he’s doing without being told you deserve it, but it’s not the same thing when it comes to Florida for some reason.
