In reply to Ben.

The ACLU usually gets involved in cases with trending topics along racial and sexual orientation lines, abortion and immigration. The fights they choose are ones they are fairly sure they can win. Helping the homeless in Miami was an anomalous incident. Lest we forget, they threw us under the bus on restoring our right to vote. Here are Florida ACLU’s priorities this 2021 legislative session:

Where is SB 932? SB 522? SB 234?

Dear FAC ,
I wanted to share this on the appropriate topic post and I felt this might be that post to share it on. I hope you’ll allow this through and I hope you and everyone else here will read it.
The Gateway Pundit is a conservative leaning publication and they are not praising the man in the story, they’re just telling the story – like journalists should. But here’s why I felt it was necessary to share here and maybe something like this can be used in one of (or several of) FAC’s lawsuits; because of any of us tried to become “activists” (liberal or conservative), we’d be damn near lynched in the public square. People with only 1 sexual offense (of ANY kind) are always incorrectly assumed to be “likely” to do it again. Well, this guy has done it SEVERAL times. What has he done? Shot people. And convicted of 2nd degree murder.
I will bet everything I own that he doesn’t get random police checkups. He certainly doesn’t have to register his crime(s) or his home address, or how many cars park near his home and for how long, etc, etc.
But we are the “threats to public safety”???!!!!! Seriously!!???

Are we supposed to be surprised?

Let’s see, Florida is the leading state in harassing it’s citizens who aren’t even suspected of any criminal conduct. As someone brought up in a previous post, a man was arrested in Burger King for eating his breakfast within 1,000 feet of a tennis court. Thank goodness Florida law enforcement was on it’s toes that day and apprehended this “offender” before he could do something to his bacon sandwich. Who knows what he would have done if he made it to the tennis court high on caffeine.

Florida locks people up in prison under the pretext that they are “patients” being “treated” for diagnosis’ not recognized by the medical community and does nothing to help these “patients” get well so they can be released.

Florida has Ron and Lauren Book who are absolutely obsessed with keeping these Burger King offenders in line.

Florida is in the 11th Circuit, a circuit that needs remedial instruction in constitutional law.

No. I’m not surprised.
