It's an ugly species.

Speaking of an ugly species:

Profane political displays in Cocoa Beach (Christmas) Boat Parade draw complaints, future changes

Guess who the assholes are.

Spoiler:

A handful of watercraft displayed vulgar messages criticizing President Joe Biden ...

I know, it's an easy challenge.

But, but didn't trump make Merry Christmas great again?

Disgusting displays in Cocoa Beach Xmas Boat Parade.

Here's a link to one of them. The smaller boat is flying a black flack flag that says "F*CK BIDEN" in big white letters. At about the 20:44 mark.

We know that you can read GoCubsGo's quote of me, the link I posted, and his comment. It's right there before your post, dodo.

Here's another two incidences I found of profane anti-Biden displays in the Cocoa Beach boat parade.

In general, the boats displaying such offensive stuff were smaller and less imaginatively decorated. Go figure.

Lake County neighbors dead after floodlight dispute leads to murder-suicide, deputies say

I would have shot the floodlight, but maybe that's just me.

Me, too. I like the sound of breaking glass. Particularly if it's at night.

Was that you running around naked in the moonlight with a hammer, peeping into bedroom windows and breaking them with a maniacal cackle?

[O Really]

Here's a really good description of DeSantis, named Deadspin #11 Idiot of the Year:

Ron DeSantis is a turd. The foulest of turds. Ron DeSantis is the type of foul turd that a person with no appreciation for your hospitality would leave in your toilet, not flush, not spray, leave the door open, and refuse to wash their hands after. He is as foul of a turd as there is floating in the toilet bowl of American leadership.

His new Stop W.O.K.E act is: a legislative proposal that will give businesses, employees, children and families tools to fight back against woke indoctrination. That is a literal sentence on the website of a public servant of the state of Florida. His No. 1 goal at this point appears to be, outside of getting re-elected, is to pull out every stop in his quest to make the state less welcoming for racial minorities, women, and members of the LGBTQ community.

DeSantis has even found a way for his foul stench to creep into sports. He signed one bill over the summer to promote “intellectual diversity” in college education. Students and faculty will be surveyed to make sure there is a “diversity” of opinions on Florida campuses and if a student feels that a professor is not allowing them to freely express their opinion, they can record the class with no penalty. DeSantis also passed a law forcing athletes in secondary and post-secondary public education to compete against the members of their sex, not their gender identity. For him, in the middle of a pandemic, gun violence epidemic, inflation, and rising hate crime rates, making sure that ignorant and offensive viewpoints can be shouted or taught in a college classroom with no judgement or reprimand, and an athlete at a school is not allowed to participate in athletics in a way that makes them most comfortable.

So when you’re in Florida and everyone once in a while that nasty swampy stench hits you in the nose, it’s not just the swap you’re smelling. It’s a turd in Tallahassee flushing his stench into every inch of the state he governs.

Can the Chicago Cucks be far behind?

IDIOT OF THE YEAR #4: Chicago Blackhawks, equal parts heinous and incompetent

It takes a lot for a hockey organization to be bigger idiots than the Montreal Canadiens, who knowingly drafted convicted sex offender Logan Maillot and apparently can’t find someone capable of giving rudimentary language tips en français.

But the Chicago hockey team is up to the task. The club with the racist logo and team name covered up a sexual abuse scandal involving video coach Brad Aldrich during a Stanley Cup run in 2011, with coach Joel Quenneville and team GM Stan Bowman deciding that sports was more important. The franchise all but doxxed the victim after the results of its investigation were released.

IDIOT OF THE YEAR #1: Jon Gruden, the face of a rotten NFL
Ex-coach alleges ‘character assassination’ as league justifiably throws him under bus



As I read I was hoping for this supporting role mention for Dan Snyder:

... “There is no explanation or justification for why Gruden’s emails were the only ones made public out of the 650,000 emails collected in the N.F.L.’s investigation of the Washington Football Team or for why the emails were held for months before being released in the middle of the Raiders’ season,” Adam Hosmer-Henner, one of Gruden’s lawyers, said in a statement.

Gruden had to go, but he’s also just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the NFL’s corruption. Because until Dan Snyder is removed in Washington and the emails about Colin Kaepernick are released, Gruden will be viewed as the lone bad apple instead of the fallen fruit from a toxic tree planted in a contaminated orchard.

If the NFL exposed Gruden to distract from something worse going on in Washington, the league could have the inside track on the 2022 Idiot of the Year.

This guy is insane

"Kevin Guthrie, the director of Florida's Division of Emergency Management, told reporters when asked about the state's stockpile: "We had between 800,000 and a million test kits, Abbott rapid test kits, in our warehouse that did expire."'

There's more to the de-insanity around the December expiration date, the September expiration date had been changed to December.

"Guthrie said the reason the tests expired in the last week of December was because there was inadequate demand for their use. State officials had already requested a three-month extension on the tests' use from federal officials when they were last set to expire in September, only for the tests to again sit unused."

And then there's this:

"Florida officials are again seeking a three-month extension on the tests"


We can do this forever.

Ah, more Republican "logic" in action.....looks like the FL governor is running with trump's old plan about "if you don't do testing, you don't get cases" and took it an illogical step further; if you keep changing the expiration date of tests, they will never expire. The man is a genius.

"John Kuczwanski, the 53-year-old Legislative Affairs Director for the State Board of Administration,  died on Jan. 6, 2022 after a road rage shooting incident. The other person involved in the incident was taken into custody but subsequently released."

"In a tweet, Kuczwanski’s wife reportedly characterized her husband’s death as an “assassination,” though no evidence points to that conclusion. According to multiple Florida news outlets, John Kuczwanski pled no contest to a road rage incident at the exact same intersection back in 2014. According to WCTV:

Arrest papers show a driver complained that a man in a red F150 pick up pointed a gun with a laser site at him"

They (right-wingers) are victims of everything. Her dumbass, unimportant husband tries to kill someone in front of witnesses and gets shot and wife starts screaming about assassination and give me money.

... Sources with knowledge of the investigation told Florida Politics that the shooting incident began as an auto accident caused by Kuczwanski that escalated into a road rage shooting between Kuczwanski and another man. Just north of Tallahassee, Kuczwanski’s black BMW reportedly drifted out of its lane and into a white Prius. Both cars then pulled into the parking lot of a Circle K. It is here where events became deadly.

Anonymous sources tell Florida Politics that the driver of the Prius got out of his car and “confronted Kuczwanski about hitting him,” and then returned to his car to wait for law enforcement’s arrival (ostensibly to file a report for insurance purposes). At this point Kuczwanski reportedly rammed his BMW into the Prius’ driver-side door and “began pushing the car sideways in the parking lot.” At this point sources told Florida Politics that Kuczwanski shot a gun at the Prius, at which time the Prius driver, also a gun owner, pulled out a gun and shot Kuczwanski through the windshield. The Prius driver slipped out of the passenger side door and hid, not knowing whether or not Kuczwanski was going to continue shooting....

Opps.

Figures.

Can you imagine the horror if there hadn't been any guns?

[Vrede too]

Can you imagine the horror if there hadn't been any guns?

Feelings might have been hurt . You and the Daily Kos think alike:

... Guns kill people. People with guns kill people. There is no “good guy with a gun,” there’re just “folks with guns.”

Comments:

What a psycho he wasn't expecting a Prius driver to be packing heat

I think that’s absolutely the case - he figured he could bully and intimidate a Prius driver.

What this country need is more guns on the street! Then everyone would be safe. Just ask the Ohio legislature — or in fact, any Republican-dominated legislature.

We’re all safer with a gun happy DT Sycophant dead and gone. It will be interesting to see his blood tox test results!

He probably thought he could own a lib with no consequences

Poor fella should have armed himself...oh wait!

That’s absolutely the consequence of the Stand Your Ground laws. If it’s an altercation between 2 people w/o witnesses, you’re better off shooting to kill so there’s no one who can dispute your claim that you:

reasonably believes that using or threatening to use such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another

(from FL Statute 776.012)

Of course, don’t count on using that law to defend yourself if you’re black and/or female.

And so on.
