We ban straws to save the whales, but what else are our liberal cities doing and for whom? While anti-Trump material is common in activist circles, should it be in college classrooms? Oddly enough, I say yes.
ESPN is making a call that other networks should consider. They are not broadcasting the national anthem during NFL games. I like taking the camera away from the protesting players and putting the focus back on football. Take away the audience the motive for the protest is diminished.
Amendment 8 is off the Florida ballot after a judge’s ruling. That‘s a good thing and I am hopeful others are on their way to the same fate. The Constitution Revision Commission lost its way and believed itself too powerful this time out. They need to be tamed. The same is true of the Democrats’ big Blue Wave…that looks more and more like a little ripple.
John Tobia is pushing for a county ordinance on E-Verify. It’s a good concept, but is it necessary absent state backing that he could have provided when a legislator. And a Florida Today columnist has taken a good look at the lagoon and local politics. It’s worth your time.
