DeSantis set to sign anti-riot bill

Some highlights:
- Increasing penalties on rioters. Since other states appear to have no penalties, this is significant.
- Making it harder for local government to strip funding from law enforcement.
- Mob intimidation and defacing historic property become crimes.
- If protesters are blocking the road, you can drive through them with civil legal immunty. I'm sure there are conditions or nuance in the actual text. But I'm okay with saying all gas, no brakes.
- If you're arrested for rioting or committing a crime during a riot, no bail until your first court appearance. So no more counting on celebrities to bail you out of jail.
- Battery on a police officer is a mandatory six-month sentence.

DeSantis is a better President than the dottering old fool in office now.

Seems pretty light, but am loving the civil immunity clause. That's awesome and hope other states adopt the same.

Why do we need another law for this? 
Aren’t riots already illegal?
Soon we will have an “anti-murder” bill and clap for it.

In South Georgia, we can still hear the distinct sound of a titanium pair clanking together in Tallahassee.

Defining a riot is now the thing. We've seen buildings and cars burned, police assaulted, people killed and been told it's mainly peaceful protests by the media. So yes, a riot now needs to be defined by law.

I'm so jealous of Florida right now.

It's almost like the area between Texas and Florida is ripe for a huge pushback on this crap. Time to step up your game LA.

Desantis has turned Florida permanently red with his pro-America governance. He will be a fantastic President, if the elections were fair. They won't be. The left is going to cheat and be even more open about it. The only difference, is they shouldn't be able to cheat Georgia again.

Cannot wait for Ron to be our next president after Heels Up gets her two years.

We need to recall Edwards. We just need a strong candidate to replace him. No more Rispone's/Abrahams/Cassidy's. I just don't think there is a Republican in this state with the balls to do what is best for the people. Kennedy seems like the only one loud enough to say what he thinks and doesn't give a shite. Not sure how well he'd do as a Governor though. Whoever wants that job, needs to lead the charge to recall Edwards. But with the spineless GOPe in the senate, i don't see that happening.

DeSantis continues to get it done. One of, if not the best, Governors in the country.

It already is defined
1. Destruction of property
2. Disturbing the peace
3. Murder
4. Theft
5. Aggravated battery
6. Assault
7. Incitement to riot
All are already illegal
Just enforce the FREAKING EXISTING LAW and stop creating new ones...that just gives lawyers more and more loopholes while giving more power to the state

Just need to be sure this can't be used tomorrow against today's non rioters.
