It amazes me how the lefties are so in favor of nullification by governmental entities but croak the no cake baking individuals. Statists, as long as they approve, everyone of them.

Are we seeing the first signs of civil society breaking down? The veneer of law and order is very thin. When it goes, it will go fast IMO.

If you are going to have civil society break down, you need to threaten peoples sense of security.

Make it hard for them to secure food.

Make water uncertain.

Make being secure in their homes uncertain.

We are an incredibly rich society, and we are very, very far from those situations.

I believe the tendency to law and order in American society is much more durable than you do. If local law enforcement becomes unreliable, we will self-organize militias or vigilance committees.

It is what we have always done.

If they can, then what is the point of having state laws?

Another insane delusional liberal who thinks he can make up his own laws.

This is a direct result of the deemphasis of civics in K-12 and the emphasis of how very, very, very bad those old dead white Americans were for the world.

I predict that by 2020 Dem politicians may outnumber drug dealers in the prison populace.

Tallahassee economy: 'fairly healthy'

This one article explains a lot. Scroll down for the diagram that shows who works at what in Tallahassee. Guess who the largest employer is...?

The Florida panhandle is quite conservative, except for the City of Tallahassee. With two major universities and all of the state government workers, only liberals are elected to public office. The City has the distinction of having the highest crime rate in the state.

I’ve always wanted to visit Florida. I’m rapidly losing the desire.

When I was a Town Commissioner (town council member) in a small Florida town 7 years ago I wanted to pass an ordinance requiring household firearms ownership, like in Kennesaw Georgia. However, state preemption wouldn’t allow it. The State of Florida has exclusive jurisdiction.
