There are over 70 confederate monuments in the state of Florida; none of which are yet painted in rainbow colors.
Id ask what’s stopping people from standing in the vicinity with a big box of chalk but thats probably a great way to get chalk made illegal.
I didn’t like Florida that much when I lived there in the 80s and 90s. It sounds like it’s gotten worse.
Goddammit, I thought this was going to be an Onion type article. It wasn’t.
Bully the policists and paint other crosswalks.
Quick! Paint somewhere else.
Paint everywhere else. Turn everything that’s not guarded in to rainbows of defiance.
You never know when one of those cheeky crossings will turn gay on you.
I looked at the sky the other day after a bit of rain. Boom. Gay. Just like that. It could happen to any of us.
What an incredibly efficient use of taxpayer-funded police forces! Should report it to DOGE, they definitely need to cut funding for that
Yep.
We cant give medicine/healthcare that those that need it, cause its to expensive.
We cant give food to those that need it, cause its too expensive.
We can’t provide shelter to those that need it, cause its too expensive.
but somehow, magically, when it comes to the police state and fascism… Theres always an endless waterfall of money.
There’s no IRS, just stop paying taxes…
Florida has it own DOGE…
Russia: Rainbow Flag Illegal
USA: Rainbow Flag Illegal
So what’s the difference anymore.
Russia has a capable (if thoroughly evil) leader?
It’s the same leader
Mmm, I’d say Ukraine makes that not the case. The capable part, not the evil part.
Maybe. I think Putin’s main concern with Ukraine was preventing them from selling natural gas from the Donbas region to Western Europe and undercutting his main source of revenue, and he’s achieved that even if he didn’t successfully overrun the whole country.
The US also has a very capable leader. As you can see with President Putin’s implementation of his controversial policies in the US.
Oh you mentioned some orange old man hanging out in DC? Oh that’s just the court jester.
Just wait em out? You’re in a seige now, and hopefully the seiging army goes home. Then, you go out and make it a rainbow again.
Go and stand there with buckets of paint and a roller and wait them out. Even better if it’s one can labeled “rainbow” paint.
Instead of defund the police, it’s now “run out the police budget”
Is it a crime to buy a vinyl decal for a car that says “rainbow painting” and drive around a city, occasionally stopping near crosswalks to check your phone? I don’t think so.
The decal should say “Gay Agenda Traffic Services.”
you’ll never run out the police budget.
If you managed to even get close to it, government would step in and take more money from starving children and the ill, to keep their fascist oppressors on the streets.
We all literally just saw this happen.
ICE budget is multiplied by 10 because they “ran out of budget”
Cause you know, that will stop all the horrible crime the GOP is talking about… You know how dangerous crosswalks are!
Hold the cops down and paint them then
Paint police instead? /silly
I know what you meant, but arguably this does make them the Paint Police.
You only need one color of paint (yellow, in case anyone wonders).
I’ve just been to east Germany and saw in a museum the Incredible pettiness of the surveillance state.
They collected smell samples of supposed activists, and you could be labeled an activist for writing something sarcastic on a poster or newspaper. Also if you were labeled as such they could 'unofficially ’ ruin your life (as in thwart your ambitions and goals.
So much money and effort was spent on policing the hearts and minds of the populace. And the frail religious conservatives who run America would probably love the idea.
I’ve just been to eat Germany
I recommend chewable Tums for that.
Hah!
I recently went to Germany too and there’s such an uncomfortably large number of cops everywhere. Do you happen to have more info on what you talked about? Id love to read up on it and potentially want friends who live there.
I was in Leipzig, the museum I was mainly taking about was museum der runde ecke but this museum Was also very informative
Thank you!
Well then lets hope the US Gov. also crumbles from the sheer amount of resources it takes to be that kind of a dick to its population. I mean they are on a fast track, spending billions they do not really have because of tax cuts to the rich.

Why do you think republicans are so keen on AI? The stasi had to rely on slow humans who might give a shit about accuracy. Republicans don’t care if they arrest the wrong person. Particularly since they know that AI trained on a racist system is going to behave like a racist system.
Seems like a good use of their time. Police jobs are basically welfare for the mediocre low iq dipshits from high school.

Soon to be replaced with lower-paying ICE jobs for the schmos who don’t even qualify to be cops. I personally wouldn’t even be surprised if it turns out ICE is hiring undocumented immigrants, for the same reason everybody else does.
