    These jokers like to use the term “freedom” to describe what they are doing, but I would like for someone to tell me how he (and his ilk) have done anything to promote freedom? Freedom for women and their doctors to do what is best for them? NO Freedom for everyone to be able to more easily vote? NO Freedom for people to disagree and have debate about what is best for them? NO Freedom for teachers to teach students to think about and see different views? NO Freedom to date or marry whomever you choose? NO

    Is it really only the freedom to carry around guns? Hell, I lived in Florida for 20 years (I left a decade ago) and it was pretty easy to get a concealed carry permit even then, so what exactly is more “free” there than before DeSantis came on the scene? I know he and his rich buddies are free to pretty much do whatever the hell they want, but for the common Floridian?
