    Pretty sure. I see a lot of people saying that this is a freedom of speech issue. Well, that ignores that RCID was not and never had been Disney. Disney is free to say whatever they want. Disney is free now to say whatever they want. Florida is free to create and dissolve special districts. Florida did not pass a law restricting what Disney is allowed to say.

    It's frankly embarrassing that people are crying about free speech on this.

    But none of what I say matters, people are going to believe what they want to believe because they either hate DeSantis or love Disney or both.

    RCID needed to go a long time ago. If it was a Democrat doing it, these same caterwaulers would be cheering from the rooftops.

    And for the record, I am a huge fan of Disney. A lot of people in my life are there because of Disney. It's not about hating Disney. It's about recognizing that RCID was a real problem.

    Take off the clown shoes and red nose. DeSantis said in his book he was going to punish Disney for being too woke. Florida has many special improvement districts and he is only going after one.

    Your immense love of BIG GOV has blinded you . This isn't even complicated & yet you tie yourself up in knots to try to justify wiping your ass with the constitution. I guess 'ats what happens when all you have is a letter (R). You should - & probably will - be embarrassed. you are an Anti-conservative!

    Which is why it is a federal interest subject to international maritime law. And really bad for business to require cruise ships to let anyone board without vaccination. Then. Bear in mind too, during this period of time, unvaccinated people were likely to get sicker and spread the disease at a greater rate. So, ordering cruise ships to take them increases the burden on the cruise ships to care for the sick person aboard and increased the exposure of others.

    It’s pretty embarrassing thst some posting here don’t know that there is actually law on the a subject you are attempting to address. Why don’t you try discussing the cases? Your opinion of the law doesn’t matter. And, frankly. You don’t understand what embarrassing is in this area of the law. So next time, don’t insult posters who do.

    You're missing the point. The government is using Reedy Creek to punish Disney for what it said. If the government punishes you for something you say then that is a first amendment violation

    “When you poke the bear or you kick the bees’ nest, sometimes issues come out,” said Brevard County Republican Rep. Randy Fine, sponsor of HB 3C.

    “Maybe this bill is pushback — on ‘woke’ capitalism,” said West Palm Beach Republican Rep. Rick Roth.

    “Once upon a time Disney was a great partner for the state of Florida. … Shamefully, Disney betrayed us,” argued Tampa Republican Rep. Jackie Toledo.

    I'm not missing the point. As I said previously, people can frame it any way they want.

    I understand that Vindi is no longer a fan of Trump so he must defend Desantis at all costs
