A right-wing extremist who once cheered the prospect of executing gay people just won a seat in the Florida Legislature.
Republican Marshall Rawson won 68.15 percent of the vote in Florida House District 10, easily beating Democrat Merrillee Malwitz Jipson in deep red North Florida. His victory was widely expected in the heavily Republican district. But in August, Rawson won the GOP primary for the open seat in a surprise victory over Chase Brannan, the son of retiring Florida Rep. Chuck Brannan.
Some of his extremist rhetoric had been reported in local outlets like Clay News & Views, which in January spotlighted a 2023 post on Twitter, now X, in which Rawson shared a report on Uganda charging men with “aggravated homosexuality.” Responding to the prospect of the men facing the death penalty, Rawson wrote, “This is how you would run the pervs and miscreants out of Florida.”
Florida Politics reported on Rawson’s lengthy involvement with the League of the South, which has been designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center since 2000. He also criticized the celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and posted that “taking old dead communist heroes of the past and dressing them up as Christian Conservatives isn’t conservatism, it’s defeatism.”
Seems there’s a new George Wallace in the south.
I would hope you pirate it cos rockstar is a massively shitty company
Is it even possible to pirate? We don’t know what firmware it will require to run. Or are you talking about the inevitable future PC port?
No sorry. That’s not fair to the workers who made it even if they work for rockstar.
They already got fired for unionizing. (Yes, really.)
i thought a lot of them were laid off already when they tried to start a union. you’re only supporting the management and their actions to make their shareholders money
Ah so you’re just a typical tool
Yep ya got me. 🫵🤣🖕
I know I did
Even better i preordered it and spent extra on the ultimate edition. I know that burns your ass. Oh I’m also off launch day thru the week after thanksgiving.
Damn, that’s straight up stupid.
You may have some things even more wrong with you than just being a tool if you let someone on the internet control your behavior that much. It’s your money and conscious, not mine so it leaves me feeling nothing but apathy. I’ll just go on about my day like I normally do while you can sit and seethe or whatever.
Your not controlling anything been my plan for months, nothings changed. I just know it pisses you off I paid for it and preordeed. Cope and seethe boy
You’re confusing rage with pity.
You’re*
You bought the game this very instant based off what a stranger was saying on the internet so that you could piss them off, that’s pretty clear cut that you weren’t in control of the situation because your intentions were to piss me off, not to buy the game. And again, I’m sitting here stoned and in total apathy. Also maybe a little bit of pity at this point towards you.
