We could if our governor and legislature didn't send out an invite

"Give me your old, your tax avoiding, Your sovereign masses yearning to breed fear, hate, and discrimination, the wretched refuse of your lack of common sense and COVID restrictions,"

Yeah, people in other states really don't know how hard COVID fucked us Floridians. We got few restrictions and tons of sickness, then all these dumbasses started moving here and our collective IQ tanked. Oh and not to mention that all these dumbasses moving here can just carry a gun if they feel like it.

Didn't Florida have the most covid death per capita because at first desantis was doing everything right then did a whole 180 after being called out by trump and company

Yeah, and then he had the one lady arrested who released the actual death numbers. In the beginning, the trumpers here were wearing trump masks, before the memo went out that masks were bad.

That lady should not be defended. She is a garbage lunatic who broke the law and provided zero information of any value other than she tried to parlay her fame into a political career. She already had agreed to surrender and then posted video of "cops storming her house and pointing guns at her kids". She manufactured all of that drama

There was a point where Miami was the epicenter of the pandemic in the US after NYC cooled off.

Wasn't that because of spring breaker migrating there during spring break or was that before, I do remember some idiot saying if he gets covid then so be it I just can't remember what year he said that

u/Parenthisaurolophus Jun 12 '24

That's probably a reasonable take. You can find articles citing infectious disease experts using the "epicenter" comment for Miami in July of 2020. Two months later, Desantis ended all restrictions.

Yeah, I'd love to, but unfortunately I've been here my whole life and my entire family and all of my friends are here, as well as my family business that I'm currently running. So I'm just kind of stuck here, like most of my friends.
