Florida Politics reports:
Florida’s Governor and Surgeon General came to Jacksonville to talk COVID-19, but ended up talking about the killing of three Black people by a White gunman with swastikas drawn on his AR-15. However, the state leaders had more criticism for the man asking about how state laws led to an avoidable racist mass murder than they did for the killer himself.
In Jacksonville, Ron DeSantis and Joseph Ladapo each responded to a questioner who led off his comments by saying he didn’t “agree” with all the Governor’s policies, specifically regarding the gun laws that allow “weapons to be put in the street” brandished by “immature and hateful people.”
“You have allowed people to hunt people like me in broad daylight,” the questioner said. “Well, listen, excuse me, I’m not going to let you accuse me of committing criminal activity. I am not going to take that. You don’t get to come here and blame me for some madman,” DeSantis said. “That is not appropriate and I’m not going to accept it.”

DeSantis puts the co-founder of a hate group on an ethics board of all places. It’s horrifying and yet nonetheless par for the course for Ron, MAGA, and the whole GOP.pic.twitter.com/x0iwdOQGz2 https://t.co/7UlUl9HwSV
