A Florida Man...

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

If there's no formal process they're just going to dump on the school board, anyhow. Either way, it's the strength of the school system and the rest of us that stops the unwarranted micromanagement.

On first glance, I thought Florida's new law requiring prosecutors to prove that a shooter was NOT defending himself was crazy.

Then, I gave it a little thought as to what the impact of the law could be. And decided it was not just crazy, but totally bat-shit insane and will get a lot of people shot and the shooters get off "Scott free."

No, Honey, but I do think it's time to find a husband that knows how to turn the grill off and to close and disconnect the propane tank before transport.

No, Honey. It's time we turned our Kia Sorrento into a convertible and opened all the windows.

Seen elsewhere:
I love how the car’s sensors basically did a giant “WHAT THE FUCK!!” and blew all the airbags at once, essentially accelerating the car’s explosion.
Kia is going to get sued for that. Driving down the highway in a station wagon with a BBQ inside, the propane tank open and the grill turned on.... In Florida that's a Freedom of Religion issue. There should be Florida-specific sensors that can respond to explosions within the car.

There should be special sensors that shut down the car when "a Florida Man" attempts to drive. Some FM's can be identified by the trucker cap and the wife-beater shirts, but a disturbing number look quite normal. Must be the mercury in the fish or something. Used to be we were afraid of getting too close to q-tips driving Crown Vics. Now it's "Florida Men."

Maybe it was the concrete pole that they ran into that did that? I'm not sure if doing so is also a Freedom of Religion issue. Plus, "accelerating the car’s explosion" would take some pretty complex calculations to determine validity.

We elected a tea bagger who was involved in stealing two billion or so from Medicare, so why not the second in command of the Fraternal Order of Alt-Knights, the “military division” of Gavin McInnes’ Proud Boys and admitted Holocaust denier who concludes speeches with the declaration, “Hail Death,” Augustus Sol Invictus for Senate.
