    (R) Florida Legislature ~ 'Porn more dangerous than Guns'

    *Breaking*


    Florida Republicans Believe Porn Is More Dangerous Than Guns

    Florida House refuses to debate guns, declares porn dangerous

    On Tuesday, less than a week after the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history, students who survived the massacre looked on as Florida's House of Representatives voted along party lines to shut down a bill banning assault rifles.



    According to Florida's legislature the real threat to the health and safety of the state's teens isn't how easy it is for their classmate to legally purchase an AR-15. According to the Tampa Bay Times, the pressing, immediate danger is in all those erotic Tumblrs out there:

    The state's House of Representatives approved the resolution by a voice vote on Tuesday. The resolution states a need for education, research and policy changes to protect Floridians, especially teenagers, from pornography.

    Republican Rep. Ross Spano says there is research that finds a connection between pornography use and mental and physical illnesses, forming and maintaining intimate relationships and deviant sexual behavior. Spano is also a candidate for attorney general.




    The most twisted part of this is the demands by Florida Republicans to research the public health impact of porn, while the CDC is implicitly banned from doing research on gun violence.

    The 1996 Dickey Amendment specifically blocks the CDC from using its budget to "advocate or promote gun control," and since objective, peer-reviewed, scientific studies consistently show effective gun control would reduce gun violence, there's no research the CDC can do that won't sacrifice its funding.

    Just as always, the tittle is not accurate.
    Tuesday’s session opened with state Rep. Kionne McGhee (D) asking for a procedural change to allow the House to consider the bill banning assault weapons, which was assigned to three committees but had not yet been scheduled for a hearing. Maybe the bill was not ready for that stage? Maybe it was still incomplete, that is why they go through committee's first.

    The porn bill was not rated a larger danger, it was a completely separate issue and maybe it was it's turn to be voted on.

    As far as the CDC goes, that has nothing to do with this at all, the State of Florida has no control of the CDC, just a red herring thrown into an article for no real reason other than hype.

    My advice to the people of Florida would be if you don't like how your Rep voted, change your vote to someone else in the next election.

    I see all the (R)'s getting unseated ... Fl. Gov Scott, who called for FBI Director Wrey to Resign in parroting Trump that the massacre was the FBI's fault practically the next day may have reached his term limit ... Rubio, who received $3,000,000 from the NRA should see a quick exit ..


    These Florida lawmakers accepted money from the National Rifle Association

    Who are the top 10 recipients of NRA money?

    What was the point of quoting Cannons Front ?? You spoke naryba word to it as matter of fact you're deflecting from your own OP.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    The NRA donates little compared to many PACs in 2016 Among All Federal Candidates, 2016 Cycle NRA Total: $834,115

    Lets look at where the real money is;
    Overall, super PACs have raised approximately $955 million this year, according to FEC reports, far more than they did at this point in the 2012 campaign. What’s more, the biggest contributors are responsible for a growing percentage of the total flowing into super PACs. Some of the 2016 data runs through August, while other groups’ disclosures go through June.

    An analysis of 2016 super PAC filings shows that the 257 donors giving $500,000 or more have contributed a total $709 million

    Sorry but those numbers do not support the "In The NRA's back pocket" Theory
