21. Let Floridians stay in Florida, then.
Wed Sep 3, 2025, 02:23 PM
Wednesday

I'm sorry blue Floridians. I empathize... I really do, living in a red state, myself. And just as hampered by the red state laws as you are. But if Floridians are to become the new harbingers of disease in the United States, then the only answer is for the rest of the States to quarantine Florida.

Frankly, I'd prefer quarantining every maga or conservative leaning repub... give them a handful of states to call their own. Rip out the military/civilian infrastructure that the democratic nation built for them and let them handle their problems on their own.

Like I said, I have great empathy for the dems in Fl, and in TX, and in KS, and in any number of the other "Red" states that are fighting a civil war the other side won't acknowledge. And I know the dearest wish of Putin is to see us broken up as a nation. At this point, I don't care WHAT putin wants or doesn't want... I want the damned cave people back under their rocks or far away from the rest of us.
