Gov. Ron DeSantis keeps putting his state on the global stage — for all the wrong reasons. (via thereidout Blog)
The United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination on Tuesday issued a
examining discrimination across the globe that name-checked Florida House Bill 1, an oppressive anti-protest law pushed by DeSantis, the state's Republican governor.
The Florida law, referred to as “anti-riot” legislation by its supporters, is a product of right-wing fearmongering. The law authorizes punitive action against anyone who “willfully participates in a violent public disturbance involving an assembly of three or more people.” It’s a bill that’s dangerously, and deliberately, broad. As written, it means an anarchist or anyone in disguise can show up to an antiracist protest and intentionally cause damage or harm, potentially dragging peaceful protesters into a criminal probe.
