    Yea, we have a pandemic plan, it's called "Get Sick & Die." Problem solved.

    Supreme Court halts COVID-19 vaccine rule for US businesses (msn.com)
    I wouldn't be surprised if this leads to more people getting the vaccine now that the government isn't making them.   There are a lot of people down here in TX that I have heard say things like I was thinking about getting the vaccine until the government tried to mandate it.  So let's hope that those that were just rebelling against the govt now go get the vaccine since it won't be "forced" on them.

    Maybe they should go to their local hospital and hang out by the back door morgue entrance instead? I don't think this will switch minds. If anything, it'll embolden them in a "see, I told you so and you can't fire me," kind of way. What's the next letter in the Greek alphabet?

    did the state of florida purge people  from voter rolls? rig the election so the Democrat running would win in an overwhelmingly D district? was the democrat running also in charge of overseeing that election?

    stop your bullshit. you want to point out actual flaws or wrong doing, happy to discuss. I might learn something. but your equivalencies should at least be equivalent......

    Republicans lost that election and won't concede. Stacy Abrams did the same thing. Republicans are not the only ones that do this.

    I don't know why you are asking the questions you are asking. Did that stuff happen? I don't know. You tell me since you are so smart.

    Republican loses special election 79% to 20%.  Won’t concede. Will sue.

    what a bunch of petulant babies.
    You mean like Stacy Abrams?

    did the state of florida purge people  from voter rolls? rig the election so the Democrat running would win in an overwhelmingly D district? was the democrat running also in charge of overseeing that election?

    stop your bullshit. you want to point out actual flaws or wrong doing, happy to discuss. I might learn something. but your equivalencies should at least be equivalent......

    Republicans lost that election and won't concede. Stacy Abrams did the same thing. Republicans are not the only ones that do this.

    I don't know why you are asking the questions you are asking. Did that stuff happen? I don't know. You tell me since you are so smart.

    You really don't see a difference between Abrams and FL?  Get real...of course you do
    I'm not sure what's going on here. A Republican lost the election and is now crying about it. Stacy Abrams did the same thing but in Georgia. Was either election rigged? I'm not sure where you guys are coming from. Was there voter fraud in Florida? I don't know. A Democrat won so it wasn't rigged by the Republicans.

    sec of state charged with overseeing elections during that psrticular election cycle. he did not step down. moves were made by his office before that election making it harder to vote for certain constituents. as I recall it was a relatively close election. her complaints centered on these facts.


    dudley dipshit had zero chance of winning in that district.

    not conceeding means dick anyway.

    ok, who are the snowflakes now?

    Florida could shield whites from 'discomfort' of racist past

    BRENDAN FARRINGTON
    Tue, January 18, 2022, 3:44 PM

    TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — A bill pushed by Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis that would prohibit public schools and private businesses from making white people feel “discomfort” when they teach students or train employees about discrimination in the nation's past received its first approval Tuesday.

    The Senate Education Committee approved the bill that takes aim at critical race theory — though it doesn't mention it explicitly — on party lines, with Republicans in favor and Democrats opposed.

    Democrats argued the bill isn't needed, would lead to frivolous lawsuits and said it would amount to censorship in schools. They asked, without success, for real-life examples of teachers or businesses telling students or employees that they are racist because of their race.

    “This bill's not for Blacks, this bill was not for any other race. This was directed to make whites not feel bad about what happened years ago,” said state Sen. Shevrin Jones, who is Black. “At no point did anyone say white people should be held responsible for what happened, but what I would ask my white counterparts is, are you an enabler of what happened or are you going to say we must talk about history?”

    DeSantis held a news conference last month in which he called critical race theory “crap," and said he would seek legislation that would allow parents to sue schools and employees to sue employers if they were subject to its teachings.

    Critical race theory is a way of thinking about America’s history through the lens of racism. It was developed during the 1970s and 1980s in response to what scholars viewed as a lack of racial progress following the civil rights legislation of the 1960s. It centers on the idea that racism is systemic in the nation’s institutions and that they function to maintain the dominance of white people in society.

    Conservatives reject it, saying it is a world view derived from Marxism that divides society by defining people as oppressors and oppressed based on their race. They call it an attempt to rewrite American history and make white people believe they are inherently racist.

    The bill reads in part, “An individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, does not bear responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race or sex. An individual should not be made to feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race.”
