Save The Friendship TrailBridge
The long-delayed demolition of the 58-year-old Friendship TrailBridge is back on track and could occur this year.
Die-hard defender Neil Cosentino, a member of the committee that saved the bridge from a wrecking ball in 1997, argued its structure is safe. Cosentino invited County Administrator Mike Merrill and commissioners to walk the bridge with him so he could prove its durability. “If we find anything wrong with the bridge, I’ll buy (Merrill) any dinner he wants at Bern’s Steak House,” Cosentino said. “I also invite commissioners to do the same after we take the first walk to make sure the bridge is safe.
I’m absolutely sure the bridge is safe.” here

After a bakery in Casselberry, Florida, refused to decorate a cake with a anti-gay marriage message" they started to receive hundreds of hateful, threatening calls. Former TV evangelist Joshua Feuerstein posted a video of his call to YouTube and his own Facebook page, then encouraged his viewers and fans (of which there are apparently more than a million, because humans are terrible) to call Cut the Cake themselves and complain.
Shockingly,* hundreds of Feuerstein's viewers decided to take this as an opportunity to leave Cut the Cake hateful or threatening messages, calls which at last blush
were still ongoing.

For kids up for adoption, is Florida the next Indiana?
Over the past few weeks there has been a lot in the news about the use of religious exemptions laws as a means to legalize discrimination. We can’t let that happen in Florida. There’s a bill in the Florida legislature that would allow adoption agencies that are contracted by the state to deny loving families to children based on the agency’s religious or moral objections, rather than a family’s ability
to care for a child.

Send a message to your house representative to oppose this discriminatory bill! here

Welcome to the New America
GOP presidential contenders are on a collision course with the American electorate.
“There is simply no way that Republicans can seem like a modern political party with widespread appeal in the New America unless they adjust to the new reality on at least a few of their long-standing policy positions. . . . Foremost in this area are gay rights,” Dana Milbank

Dear Tallahassee Politician
You, Tallahassee Politician, are going to lose your moral authority in about 30 days.
When we put medical marijuana on the ballot in 2014 - so many of you objected,
saying legislature was the best place for this to get done.We all know what happened next: A billionaire
put in $6 million, funded an outrageous set of lies and exaggerations about the
amendment, and then we came just short of the 60% we needed, despite our 3.4
million votes cast in favor of medical marijuana.
Maybe some of you think we're bluffing. Maybe you don't believe our expert
pollster - who said that if we ran the exact same race in 2016 as we did in
2014, we'd win. (We're going to run a better race, regardless.)
