RE: I'm a Florida voter now :huh:
NY, CA and FL, I see you're a high density girl!

I think it might be more the times we're living in more than the state. And the place your work might be a red neck haven. Didn't you tell us at one time that you served some famous alt right christian clown?

I found a lot of left in Ybor City.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

@Thread Title.

Good luck with that, lol.   Tell you how I dealt with being a floridian.



-I'll always be a cracker.... in my heart, though, lol.  Wink
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I'm a non-voting Floridian.

Why? Look I live in a deeply red county in my state, but I don't give a shit. Change does not happen by sitting out and giving up. Montana has a democratic governor. Oklahoma has also had a democrat in the past as gov. My state NC has turned more purple but was for decades a deeply red state. Fla like Ohio and Penn and Michigan are all swing states. YOUR VOTE MATTERS no matter what part of Florida you live in. Currently you have a fucking dickhead Governor who has fucked up Florida over environmental issues, red algae, and has turned the state into a shooting gallery.

VOTE unless you want America to become a third world dumpster.Don't give 45 8 years. Don't let the GOP let billionaires continue to fleece the rest of us for their bad gambling on Wall Street.

While I encourage everyone to participate, I also respect anyone's choice not to do so, for whatever reason. Freedom of conscience also includes the freedom not to participate.

That a person may realize the futility of voting in their situation (or in general) doesn't mean that they cant see that things have gone awry or that they have no grounds for complaint.  Hell..what has all the voting done, anyway?  The votes against have failed and the votes for are -why- that thing is happening.

Is it entirely unreasonable to suggest that..were enough people to recognize the farce for what it is and do something a little more effective than pull a lever for "the lesser of two evils"..we might see real change? You dont see me at a casino trying to get rich - there's a reason for that.

Many years ago, Reader's Digest had an article about having a "none of the above" check box on ballots. Ostensibly, it would drive the parties to field different suspects. That would have been a nice choice, last presidential election.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Nice, but pointless. The electoral college doesn't care who the people vote for or don't vote for.

Florida is an interesting state, btw.  The populations centers are....in day to day life...-very- liberal (banana hammocks for you, and you, and you, banana hammocks for errybody!)..but at the middle-to-bottom of the list for dem votes when it comes time to yank the lever.

The neighborhood I'm from, S. Pasadena/ Paradise/TI..is ranked at the bottom of the list - dead last-, even though it ostensibly contains Gulfport, the gay capital of the Bay and is demonstrably full of libs.
(it's a super fuckin ritzy piece of St. Petersburg, is why, long story short - beautiful pink property walls, terracotta roofs, firs all around - we're all about them breaks, bout them breaks..no taxes.)

-and then there's the swamp.......

People are free to participate in so far as they are able and inclined to do so. That they don't participate in one part of the process is not an argument that they should be excluded from other parts of the process.

It's my sacrosanct right as an american to endlessly bitch about the other guys.  Something everyone who's ever been to the giant eldercare facility known as florida already knows.
