new from me: Florida officials keep painting over the Pulse memorial rainbow crosswalk
Fuck Florida! Never ever going again. Fascist fuckers! Can’t even have a memorial for lives lost?? I have had it with the fucking nazis!!
It didn't used to be that way. Back in the day, FL was fun. Before Republicans took over.
The party of family values and pro-life, just not your family or your life. These people are pathologically sociopathic
🤬It's that damn DeSantis.
Now the Florida highway patrol has dedicated officers not to direct traffic at that intersection but to prevent repainting the crosswalk . FHP is alreaady assisting ICE in their pursuits not only in Florida but other states as well. A well managed use of FHP resources. Desantis at his best.
And now they have posted a police cruiser by it.
Stop painting! .it won’t matter bc we have more chalk than you have paint
This where they in Florida spend they time & money???????????... No wonder #RedStates are broke AF!! If I lived in a Red State I'd tell them.#Republicans to QUIT wasting my tax money on that type of bulllshht, and use our state of Florida tax money in a PROPER way!! #yeesh!!!
Good work on the #PulseCrosswalk #Orlando! As @hcrichardson.bsky.social & @jbf1755.bsky.social point out below, "local protests are where you're going to touch real individuals in real ways." www.youtube.com/watch?v=cskh...
DeSATAN, Triggered by a rainbow🌈🌈🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🌈🌈🌈
interestingly enough, while FDOT followed an order from the Trump administration to erase potentially “distracting” road art, the actual list they sent to the city did not have the Pulse memorial on it *at all*
Eventually, when the paint gets so thick of black and white over rainbow, it's going to become a speed bump.
Keep putting them all over town then
The repeated attempt to erase this memorial to the 49 murdered and the 53 wounded at Pulse is more than just painting over a street crossing. It is an assertion that their lives did not count and they’re not deserving of a memorial. It’s cruel and vile just like all the other abuses we’re seeing.
Oh lookey your hard earned tax dollars at work🙄
FloriDUMB
your tax dollars at work
This is so ignorant and stupid that they keep painting over it….. the snowflakes are that uptight over ranbow colors?! - which also carry deeper meaning - to memorialize lives taken senselessly…. Awful all around.
rainbow crossings put people like my daughter, who has visual impairment and a guide dog, at risk. Not everything that you think is 'inclusive' actually is www.rnib.org.uk/news/multi-c...
Hmmmm... See now I'm feeling a challenge coming on. 1. Voluntarily remove the painting but make sure to finish the "cleanup" with muriatic acid to etch asphalt. 2. With a crew, "repaint" the cross walk with terrazzo and make sure to use a retroreflective substrate. 3. Instead of standard
..polyurethane topper, use TotalBoat two part epoxy as a finish. 4. Allow assholes to cover the work and then just show up the next day with some scrub brushes and water. Actual removal would likely require a road crew.
Just gonna have to keep painting then, the rainbow stays
Anyone mad at this, feel free to be mad at the reasoning. But don't feel mad about the removal itself, because rainbow crossings put people like my daughter, who has visual impairment and a guide dog, at risk. Not everything that you think is 'inclusive' actually is www.rnib.org.uk/news/multi-c...
