“DeSantis on potential looters after Idalia: You never know what’s behind that door”

“You loot…we shoot”

This is another reason why Ron DeSantis is a great Governor.

If, by chance, he makes it to the General Election in November 2024, you may want to consider casting your vote in his direction. You won’t regret having him as our next President.

35% of electricity in the City was knocked out when highest wind speed was, what, only 35-50mph? Why isn’t our grid more resilient? Plus, over 100 outside linemen had to be requested to help? Heaven help us if we ever get a closer hit.

The “no fatalities” statistic is a minor miracle given people’s propensity to ignore evacuation warnings.

And I loved DeSantis comment on looting. “You loot — we shoot!”

Full context – “We are not going to tolerate looting in the aftermath of a natural disaster,” DeSantis said. “I’d also just remind potential looters: You never know what you’re walking into. People have a right to defend their property. [In] this part of Florida, you got a lot of advocates and proponents of the Second Amendment and I’ve seen signs in different people’s yards after these disasters and I’d say it’s probably [true] here: ‘You loot, we shoot.’
