I am shocked that he didn’t include “those previously convicted of felonies.”

So discrimination against douchebag corporate parasites who should be in prison for committing the largest Medicare fraud in history– that’s still okay, right?

before his swearing in he had a private prayer meeting with a bunch of southern baptist preachers. i was raised in alabama in a southern baptist house and all my family still is southern baptist. southern baptist and islamist fascist… one and the same. we here in florida are in for a rough 4 yrs. hopefully he can get caught in some kind of scandal and all his policies will put a major hurting on the people of this state. then again there so stupid here they would still vote for him “cause he stands up the blackie in the white house”

Age is missing? in FLORIDA’S anti-discrimination policies? It must be they aren’t aware that 1) old people vote the most and 2) FL is where people seem to flock to when they get old.

Yes, disability and age are missing as well. I’m sure folks can come up with others, too.

We were left out under Crist, too.

There’s a reason we call this the Sunshine Hate… Florida likes to portray itself as welcoming and inclusive to lure gay dollars, but there’s an incredible amount of anti-gay animus here.

I note that disability also appears to be AWOL.

Anyone from Florida know what the policy was under Crist?
