Find a place nobody wants. Move around only in the dark, stay very quiet, put out a few rat traps and you might have yourself a home.

Welcome To Rick Scott's Florida.

An out of town band's shitty time at The Pegasus Lounge
Now look... I'm not usually one to judge something based entirely on one experience, but with that said, I'm pretty sure Tampa is a shithole. Now if you're from Tampa or you like Tampa or you have family from Tampa, please don't be offended. I'm sure there are good people and good places in Tampa, just like with any place in the world. But the Tampa we saw yesterday was just a rundown desperate shithole with shitty people and shitty places. But maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's start from the beginning.

Saint Petersblog Subpoenaed by FDLE

Pushing Rope is saying Peter Schorsch of Saint Petersblog was subpoenaed by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement over a comment (Wish someone would put a bullet in the fuckers face already!) someone left on his blog. He asked Schorsch some questions.

The Communications Decency Act of 1996 makes clear that no internet service provider or web site owner is responsible for someone else's speech.
The FDLE care about this?

With the Florida GOP giving our money to the wealthy and corporations, you might want to think of alternatives. One is growing your own food. It's easy. Check out Seminole Heights Community Garden. In Pinellas visit Bartlett Park Community Garden for help. Homefarming.com is also very helpful.

A Message From Saint Petersblog

Dear Readers:
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement has alerted me to a comment which was published two days ago on SaintPetersblog.com. I am not going to give credence to the comment by re-posting it, but it included a violent threat against Governor Rick Scott. I have more than willingly supplied
the FDLE with the I.P. address of the commentor.

As much as I may disagree with the politics and policies of Governor Scott, the man is a public servant and deserves a certain modicum of respect. If you don’t respect the man, then respect the office.

Accordingly, please refrain from making threats, of any kind, to not only Governor Scott, but to any politician. I cannot monitor every comment that is made on this site, so if this becomes a problem, I will have to modify or disable the commenting system, which takes away from the interactive nature of SaintPetersblog.com.

Thank you.
Peter Schorsch

Speaking of threats, the FDLE should check this out.

Imagine What $4 Trillion Could Buy

A new report out of Brown University estimates that the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq--together with the counterinsurgency efforts in Pakistan--will, all told, cost $4 trillion
and leave 225,000 dead, both civilians and soldiers.
