In reply to the discussion: DeSantis seeks $98 million to fund Florida's own military [View all]jaxexpat
(7,794 posts)To be sure, DeSantis' "army" will have very little to do with the aid, safety and security of Floridians during times of weather crises. The generals and other "capos" are already in place. The $98 million is to pay the bar bill for the highly "motivated", military rejected, bully-boys who will charade as street patrols, fully armed with everything but intelligence or souls.
The whole purpose of this is to throw fear into the non-white population. It is the heart of Jim Crow come back beating strong. Non-Floridians, do not find yourselves too smug. The way has been made clear for similar outrage in many American locales for similar misuse/abuse of power. If DeSantis succeeds, it will become fashionable in places some people don't expect. Columbus, Oh., Springfield, Mo., Grand Junction, Colo., just about anywhere people have been foolish enough to elect their government from the host of lying bigots who are the current GOP.
