In response to protests Florida passed laws making blocking streets a felony and immunizing from prosecution anyone who drives a car into protesters. Governor DeathSantis insisted it was about public safety, not politics.
Last week Florida streets were repeatedly blocked by protests against the Cuban government. No one was arrested, much less charged with felony. Because Republicans claim to support the protests. Although not crazy about democracy here.
It was about politics. No surprise.
Doesn't surprise me.
Not going to look good when white supremacists are plowing down protestors for fun without consequence.
So either way its a win for Republicans. Protestors will be felons for protesting and won't be able to vote or will be dead.
