Ybor City Drug Crime
Last February Matthew Heller was returning to his truck after having attended a Juicy J
concert in Ybor City, “When he jumps in his truck, it was torn apart
inside, wires had been yanked out, the paneling had some scratches on it…” One
might think that maybe it was a burglar who had been inside his truck, but nope.
It was TPD, and Mr. Heller knows that because they did leave a note saying
exactly what they did. Here
Soon we can avoid all this and TPD can fight real crime.
VOTE YES ON 2

Dear Mr. Rubio
Thank you very much for your e-mail
"Thank you for
contacting me regarding marijuana usage. I understand this is an important
issue to you and I appreciate hearing your thoughts.
Up front, let me say we
disagree.
The use of illegal
drugs has a profound impact on many people in our country, especially children.
Drugs contribute to violent crime and enrich international crime organizations.
More than that, they destroy lives and undermine our society. The federal
government has an important role to play in combatting drug trafficking and the
criminal organizations that benefit from it.
H.R. 499 the
"Ending Federal Marijuana Prohibition Act of 2013", was introduced by
Congressman Jared Polis of Colorado. This legislation seeks to remove marijuana
from the list of Schedule I controlled substances. H.R. 499 has been referred
to the House Subcommittee on Conservation, Energy, and Forestry. There is no
companion legislation for H.R. 2306 in the Senate. I cannot support blanket
legalization for marijuana and I would like to see more scientific research and
data before changing the laws on medicinal marijuana.
It is an honor and
a privilege to serve you as your United States Senator. I appreciate you
offering your opinion on this issue. If I can ever be of any assistance to you
in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me."
Sincerely, Marco
Rubio, Uited States Senator
First of all Mr. Rubio, drugs do not contribute to violent crime, drug laws do.
and second instead of enriching international crime organizations
we could be enriching our states coffer. This is going to pass, with or without your support. So you better get used to it.
Florida DINO Debbie Wasserman Schultz
The age of progressive politics I am
highly disappointed in
DNC Chair Wasserman Schultz.
She obviously doesn’t understand the benefits of medical marijuana and hasn’t bothered to understand Amendment 2, either.

Pam Bondi and Rick Scott
She is neither compassionate

John
Morgan, Chairman, United for Care
“As a constituent of Rep. Wasserman Schultz
and the father of a little girl who suffers from terrible seizures that could be
alleviated by the use of medical marijuana, I find her remarks extremely
troubling and disappointing. I don’t know how Congresswoman Schultz would feel
if she was getting constant text messages from home every single day letting her
know that her young child was suffering from yet another of hundreds of
debilitating and potentially deadly seizures, but I suspect her view on
Amendment 2 would be quite different. I hope no one in her family ever has to
experience what my Becca does every day, and I hope that she reconsiders her
position on this life or death issue.”
Serial Bride Pam Bondi
Her marriages, divorces, and out-of-wedlock relationships are her business – not state business. But it’s hypocritical of this serial bride to use sanctimonious arguments to try to convince a federal court to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union and SAVE on behalf of gay and lesbian couples seeking to have their out-of-state marriages recognized in Florida. more>

The Florida Doctrine of Medical Necessity
Right now there is a provision in Florida law that allows the use of medical marijuana
for certain patients.
The Florida Doctrine of Medical Necessity
is not well known but it is being used by people here in state who say medicinal marijuana is their last hope. The use of medical marijuana has been legal in Florida for medical use for more than two decades. more>

Florida leads the country in for-profit incarceration
Corrupt for-profit companies have taken over Florida's criminal justice system — making millions by unjustly incarcerating Black and Brown youth in violently exploitative and inhumane conditions.
We can stop them.
Tell the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice: stop contracting with abusive for-profit prisons. here
Florida Judge Denies Motion By Extremists
"Judge Zabel reached the proper conclusion in denying the attempt to intervene in this case by extremists seeking a platform for their anti-gay rhetoric. This case is about fundamental constitutionally protected rights that are violated by a measure that does real harm to our families. We believe Florida will join the 19 other states where judges have come to the conclusion that the ban is indefensible." - Nadine Smith, Equality Florida CEO
