Rick Scott's Florida Voter Suppression

 When Republican Rick Scott took office in 2011, he immediately rolled back a policy of his predecessor, Charlie Crist, who automatically restored the rights of many felony offenders who had completed their sentences. Scott introduced new rules requiring that people convicted of nonviolent felonies wait five years before they can apply to have their civil rights restored; those convicted of violent and certain more serious felonies must wait seven years to apply. Under Crist, tens of thousands of felons, on average, won back their right to vote each year. So far, Gov. Scott has restored the rights of just 1,866. here

Rick Scott's Florida Prisons: 50 Is The New 70

In prison, 50 is the new 70: Lifetimes of poverty, limited access to health care, untreated mental illness and addiction leave inmates in such poor health that 50 is the formal definition of an elderly prisoner in Florida. here

Gun Nuts Stay Out Of Pinellas County

Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said, if an officer arrives at the scene of a crime and sees someone with a weapon, "At a minimum, they're going to be thrown down on the ground with a gun pointed at them --- or worse." And if good citizen with a concealed weapon walks into, say, a bank during an armed robbery, Gualtieri added, "he's going to take one in the chest because he's a threat. It's not good for Florida, it's not good for the economy, it's not good for tourism." here

For Our Blue Pill Friends


There are none so blind as those who will not look. If you are one of those who will look, take a look around. You are surrounded -- surrounded by millions who will not look. These are the blue pill people. Who are these blue pill people and why won't they look? 
“The Matrix” may be only a movie, but it presents some scenarios with much relevance to our current situation. In the movie, Neo meets Morpheus and is offered an opportunity and a choice. Neo can take the red pill and see the truth for himself, or he can take the blue pill and return, comfortably unaware, to the illusion of the Matrix. There he can live out his life undisturbed by the truth.

  "Most of our old friends are Blue Pill people. They are so selfish they are more interested in drinking beer, watching sports and other crap on TV, playing poker on the computer and posting nonsense on Facebook then what kind of a future they are leaving their children. 
You guys, you know who you are! It doesn't really matter right? You will be dead and gone.
Let your kids deal with it you selfish assholes."
