Secondly, anyone who thinks it’s the responsibility of ppl who work is to pay taxes for insurance for ppl who refuse to work is insane. I work way to hard and way to much. I get taxed plenty already, don’t feel remotely bad about not paying a state tax to provide someone with insurance. Get a job you bums. Or get two jobs, like I have. I do not sit around crying that the government isn’t supplementing my income. I got another job and supplemented my own income. Call me sick of liberals, millinials and sick of Democrats. If you don’t like America, feel free to leave, please leave, please….

I’m registered as a republican but I vote pretty much across the board. I’ve voted for Bill Nelson several times. I can’t vote for a man that says law enforcement is the problem in this state. Democtrots are on the hunt for the heads of LEO’s. Really??? Someone who believes that the men and women protecting them are the enemy and need to be investigated everytime some dirt bags feelings get hurt or they get killed because of their own actions. Handcuffing local law enforcement and restricting them from doing thier job puts us all at risk.

Imo, one seems to be pro socialist, in favor of open borders, anti Law Enforcement, and a sjw. Not real sure he is a pro Constitution type.

The other seems like a pro American, pro Law Enforcement, and the rule of law. And appears to be pro Constitution.

My choice is an easy one.

Ron Desantis for the good of Florida.

Here are the facts about the crime rate in Tallahassee – all of which is available online via the FDLE website under the crime and data statistics. The crime rate is per 100,000 citizens and Tallahassee has consistently seen an estimated population of 189.000+ residents.

In 2013 – the year before Gillum became Mayor – Tallahassee PD logged 5,175.7 crimes per 100,000 citizens.

In 2014 – the year Gillum became Mayor – the crime rate CLIMBED to 5,798.7 crimes per 100,000 citizens.

In 2015 crime rate CLIMBED to 6,173.0 crimes per 100,000 citizens.

In 2016 the crime rate CLIMBED to 6726.8 crimes per 100,000 citizens.

In 2017 the crime rate FELL to 5,764.5 crimes per 1000,000 citizens.

While Gillum can claim there is a downward trend, the fact is the crime rate is still higher today than it was prior to him taking office. This, despite a trend across Florida for much lower drops in crime in the same time frame.

My money says that the lower crime rate across the state and in the city of Tallahassee can be attributed to the ever increasing JOBS MARKET under the guidance of POTUS Donald J Trump than with anything that Andrew Gilum did as mayor of Tallahassee.

Again, I state, Gillum is not fit to be the next Governor of Florida.

So……two potential candidates who are vying for a seat that would essentially give them “power” over a whole state and they BOTH resort to grade school tactics? What happened to “May the best man win”? When we stop building our country on corrupt foundational values, maybe we will see something more than corrupt or, at best, questionable results. When our potential candidates stop bickering and start embodying hard work and quality values maybe the people who follow and support them will do the same instead of arguing over nonsensical stuff. Far too often, as American citizens, we allow such small, insignificant things to separate us. WE are the United States of America. We really need to be good sports and act like it.

in the immortal words of the great Democratic strategist James Caravelle “the economy, stupid”. Florida is outpacing the majority of the nation economically. Not the time to elect a socialist.

For crying out loud.

Lu – you go right ahead and donate your money to pay for the wall. When trump was running he said Mexico was going to pay for it.

Mommaof3 – How about you let trump know he cannot attack anyone and bully anyone. Then maybe he can earn our respect.

Bewildered, Kate and My2Cents – agreed!

chillywilly – absolutely!

Llfendason – Really? That is the only thing in this country you care about and expect everyone else to care about? Your precious republicans don’t care after the baby is born, only long enough to take away a woman’s rights. FaithinUS got that correct.

I have a stomach ulcer and was proscribed Misoprostol.

I have had it filled here in town before. Recently I was on vacation and had to pick up a refill and was turned away because it is “an abortion pill”. What right did that pharmacist have to decide my doctor was not allowed to prescribe me medicine?

Truth – Here is a dictionary definition for you.

Liberal – open to new behavior or opinions and willing to discard traditional values, favorable to or respectful of individual rights and freedoms.
