Here’s What I Would Say As Governor Of Florida Concerning Threats Of Rioting & Murder Over Zimmerman Verdict
Scott barely beat Alex Sink last time.
Given his complicity in the present fiasco, I’m going to have to think long and hard about voting for him again; even if it means another round of “Good-time” Charlie Crist.
Four words:
You loot, we shoot.
I remember Governor Claude Kirk when they had riots in Tampa.
He called in the national guard and even rode around in a jeep manning a .50 cal. machine gun. What a character.
very good statement.
I also remember when Stokely Carmicaael was making an inflammatory speech at FSU, Gov. Kirk walked on stage and grabbed the mike out of Stokely’s hand and began his own speech.
Do you think OweBowMao’s comments fomenting this case was geared to roil the 2012 Black vote in order to capture Florida’s electoral votes?
OweBowMao won Florida by 70,000 votes.
I happen to believe that was its sole purpose. The guy got re-elected and now leaves it to the compliant press to keep it going.
The Broward County Sheriff asks residents not to riot in his Department’s video.

I would tell nut-less Rick Scott to resign...it was his decision to put Angela Corey in as Prosecutor...instead of keeping the local State Atty. Rick Scott, and AG Pam Bondi, both supported the Black Ku Klux Klan over common sense.
My county is peeing away taxpayer money to put on a show trial...because of weak GOP leaders in this state who kowtow to the Black Ku Klux Klan.
I will work my ass off to primary Scott and Bondi in ‘14.
Actually - it is not stated harshly enough ... People who plan riots or get caught up in them and participate are fools... This is not 1960 - people of all colors are armed to the teeth... And will shoot back. People are not going to stand and watch their homes or business be burned... There are approximately 100 million gun owners owning up to 300 million guns with plenty of bullets despite the government contrived shortage... Anyone who riots is not only a fool - but stupid and cannot read or watch the news...
Best and shortest speech for the gov: “Double Tap”.
The real Gov. would say nothing, this is all his fault.
Governor Scott, one time Tea Party angel, pushed this trial after knowing there was “no case.” He is on the Feds’ side in this, and we already know that the DOJ- the Feds, were spending money to promote demonstrations and worse before the arrest.
And why are the PD’s in Broward, Dade and other areas are doing PSA’s advising the “peeps” in da’ hoods to “chill out” and not riot? Are they insinuating Blacks are more violent prone? That they need to be handled differently because they’re inferior? Are they agreeing with the klan, White supremacists, skinheads, etc? Who’s the REAL racists here?
It'll cost you some bucks ($200 Fed license, $75 to thread the barrel and $75 for the "adapter") but the simplicity - and availability, looks intriguing for any Ruger 10/22 owner (1:17): HERE.
As governor of the State of Florida, prior to the verdict, I would call up several units of the Florida National Guard to assemble at several rallying points near where estimates were that riots could happen. The units would be provided with a large number of high test nylon restraints, and would set up large tents where detainees would be kept.
Rioters who were detained by police and Sheriffs deputies would be turned over to the National Guard for processing, so they would not be overwhelmed. Those not arrested for criminal acts would be released after 48 hours, in small groups.
