Another Ga. idiot....

Good on the Fl. sheriff!...

A Florida sheriff unleashed a tirade Wednesday against a Georgia state senator who tested positive for the novel coronavirus and traveled to an island vacation home in his county. 
Franklin County Sheriff A.J. Smith said state Sen. Bruce Thompson, a Republican from White, arrived Tuesday night at his beachfront home in St. George, Florida. 
Thompson announced March 22 he had tested positive for COVID-19 after being hospitalized with respiratory issues. He could not immediately be reached Wednesday. 
A Florida executive order requires anyone who travels from “an area of substantial community spread” to isolate or quarantine for 14 days after entering the state and granted police enforcement powers. 
“I am going to put a deputy out in front of his house and if he leaves we’re going to ask him why, because he’s supposed to self quarantine — which could lead to an arrest,” Smith told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. 
“I’m serious about this,” Smith said. “I’m not playing around. I appreciate his position in Georgia, being a senator, but it’s irresponsible for him to be here, I think, and to put our community in danger.”

Have you noticed how the idiots love to vacation in Florida?  I wonder what's attracting them?  It's not like Florida has the only beaches...

Alabama beaches are just sad & smell bad.  Mississippi beaches are for gamblers & drunks. Plus neither have blue water beaches, they have Gulf of Mexico brown water & tar balls.  Louisiana doesn't really have "beaches".    You have to go WAY too far down the Texas coast to hit blue water beaches & that gets those old white folks too close to those brown people they are terrified of.  So Florida it is!

Oh trust me.  There are plenty of "non-white" folks in Florida.  I guess some folks aren't paying attention.  Unless, of course, in their opinion, if they're doing the menial labor, it doesn't matter.  (If they met some of my immigrant neighbors, those same folks might have a heart attack.)

Crap. My father changed his mind and went back to Florida this week and that’s too close for comfort. At least he’s taking this seriously. Sigh.
