    It’s the law of unintended consequences. At least they understood the issue with the legislation and did something about it. Better than a lot of politicians that pass laws and then pretend things are great when they clearly aren’t.

    This may be be most hypocritical post I've ever seen on GC- wow!

    All in all, good job by the entire House in getting this going.

    Exactly
    Nobody knew how NIL was going to play out when it started. As soon as they realized the law wasn’t working they eliminated it. Voice of the people I say. That’s why this discussion is relevant

    Let’s hope not. This entire thread is about how the state law that was standing in our way was repealed. It’s a credit to the people who voted unanimously to ditch a law they created just a year earlier. Why? They heard the voice of the people and acted on it. Like an elected government is supposed to do.

    Nowhere in the thread do the words Democrat, Republican, liberal, or conservative appear. So let’s applaud something good instead of trying to turn it into something else.

    Creative is about all I can say to that. . Guess you haven't been around long.

    Glad the boys in tally finally corrected their mistake as I said. If somebody deserves credit it would be chip le marca the guy that authored the bill not the guy referenced.

    Wow- just amazing... I don't know if you're trying to be ironic or you're just really entitled, but once again you bring staggering hypocrisy.

    Our little buddy keeps ignoring the fact that the lawmakers who unanimously voted to repeal that law were a mixture of democrats and republicans. They did well working together to represent the people of Florida, and it’s appropriate to recognize. Yet “some people” can’t see that they’re the ones obsessed with politics - and hate for anything that doesn’t fit their agendas

    I meant to tell that to skink. Who I thought posted the first one to praise our dear leader Ron. If I screwed up it was my mistake and I apologize.

    That is a political answer. It does not belong outside of too hot. I could state my opinion of our new walk ons father but that would certainly get this moved to too hot.
