  1. Police reform is key to reducing crime Pat. union thugs with no accountability, bad deal for taxpayers and residents every time

  2. I’m glad the Governor is doing what he can to protect minors from those who are corrupting them. But, I wonder if there was an outcry from Christians regarding the profane behavior of mocking Christmas and Christians? I didn’t hear of it. Are the Christians too bullied to complain? Isn’t this a hate crime?

  3. Another day another shooting.

    On the Florida Channel a Florida Asst State Attorney spoke in favor of lower to age 10 that a youth can be charged as an adult for Murder and Manslaughter. Too bad the elected officials, sheriffs and police chiefs are more interested in police reform than reducing crime.
