Or are there so many        AT> MAGA people in Florida that it's just no big deal?        AT>               There is a saying in Florida... and that is... The further North you are n       Florida the further south you are.              A lot of people who move to Florida from up north move to the more southern       parts of the state... It starts around Tampa and continues south... You can       hear all the NY accents... and when these assholes from NY move they bring       their politics with them... This explains Miami, and other larger southern       cities voting Democrat. Thanx to Ron DeSantis and Daddy Trump these Blue       areas now are Purple.              I had a Real Estate license in Florida, still do, since the early 2000s. My       first real estate translation involved guns and gunfire...              True Story.              The house was a For Sale By Owner... FISBO... and I was representing the       buyer. A couple from Ohio, or Ohi'ya from the south. They were staying in a       RV place just down the street from the house... Rock Crusher Canyon... The       place was being rented out at the time and the tenants didn't want to move.              So, the tenants drove through the RV park shooting guns in the air while       yelling that the buyers need to go back to Ohi'ya.              Well, the sheriff got involved, the house closed and no one died.              Funny story... But I love Red Necks... Citrus County was full of them... In       fact you couldn't make a full set of teeth with the bunch.              If I was ever in need of help... it was a Conservative/Republican/RedNeck that       had my back. They were there before you needed to ask... It is these Patriots       that went to war and died for freedoms that some seem to take for granted       today.              One last true story... I just moved down there and it was Veteran's Day and I       was at a church. The pastor started asking for people to stand up, veterans,       as he started a roll call of conflicts... WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam... and the       list goes on and on. As he was calling out the conflicts people started       standing... Of course he calls out for Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi       Freedom... By the time he was there almost every man... BUT ME... was       standing. In my head I was YELLING "I'm Canadian!!! That's not fair"...               HAHAHAHA... Could you imagine how much worse I'd be if I was actually born       there, raised and steeped in the southern ways...              Think about it.              IB Joe, Pronouns (FJB/LGB)        AKA Joe Schweier       SysOp of 4A 6F 65 73 42 42 53        -=JoesBBS.com=-              ...
