*Imagine*
A true “Representative of his constituents “!
We got it. 👊
This cannot possibly be that crazy, but - yes - it is.
Image still worked
You could also imagine it, I guess, but yeah, it's an image of that, literally.
No worries, paint that shit!!!!! 🖌️
Challenge!!!!
I saw this post, like, a dozen times and never saw the typo until you acknowledged it.
To be fair, this IS all about image for MAGA and the #GQP ...
To get into the twisted heads of the people behind this, I recall an editorial Jenna Ellis (Trump's former attorney and co-defendant) wrote right after 49 people were killed at Pulse nightclub. She urged Christians not to let any sympathy soften their hatred for gay people. #EvilMeanPeople.
Governor says we shouldn’t “ politicize “ our streets 49 souls wiped out by hate. Its not political it’s honoring the dead
Ellis was disbarred, and convicted ( guilty plea ), though on different charges the end result is the same. To have a civil society, hate can play no role in any capacity. Every person has a right to practice their religion, but no right to push on others and invade my own rights.
That is so Christian!
She didn't get Christ's message about love. He would have said to leave his name out of any message about hate.
#EvilmeanPeople
Just remember, Christianity brought you such great hits as the Spanish inquisition and the crusades. Just remember the native Americans who died from forced assimilation or the Irish girls forced to church labor for getting pregnant. Jesus preached love, man turned it to hate.
Christian trash
They love to hide their own hate behind the boogeyman in their heads.
Maga christians with a soft heart?? Hahaha 😆 Hahaha 😆 Hahaha go on Hahaha
WOW..that's disgusting Jenna Ellis must be closet gay Why else would a person say something so cruel
Scoring MAGA points.
Der(Dirty)Sanchez
The magas and their orange leader are full up on hate—indiscriminate hate!
There is a whole section in Hell for those kinds of "Christians." Satan probably loves their little pikachu faces when they first get there.
Earlier this year Ellis returned to past form, working with a conservative evangelical ministry. She now has a full-time job with American Family Association as senior adviser on public policy.
I assume the same principle applies to those of us who might be tempted to have sympathy for insurrectionists. But of course it does not. The Trump philosophy of “OK for me but not for thee” clearly applies.
Narrator: If they include the word hate in their message, they are NOT Christians.
When Dear Leader finally departs this Earth, I won't let sympathy soften my hatred for MAGA republicans.
I had a client visit my studio to commission a painting. She asked why I wasn't married, and I said I was to my husband. She said " I'm a Christian, so that isn't real." I said " Thank you for your interest in my work, but I don't work for Christians, their religion isn't real".
👏👏👏👏
The absolute audacity and sense of entitlement someone has to have to say something like that, straight to your face, while seeking your services, is obscene. I hope your response gave her at least a slight nudge toward self reflection and awareness, but I doubt it.
Thank you for understanding what I was attempting to do. If someone gets a small taste of the way it feels to be told your life is not real or valid, they may at least try to avoid doing it to others.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I just have to remind you that some Christian denominations support gay marriage, immigrants & diversity. Christians on the left don't ham it up on tv.
the correct response is, "I'm so sorry you were treated that way." then take that correcting energy and focus it where it is needed.
I'm very concerned about people mistreated by hateful "christian" nationalist rhetoric but I resent being grouped in with people I don't identify with. I don't identify all Muslims with the Taliban. I think this constant animosity constantly shown toward anyone of faith is alienating many voters.
I don’t think anyone is saying that it is ALL christians. But the many are quite narrow minded and live with the belief that you must think like me.
but that's an us problem. as Christians we need stand up to those poluting our faith, not correct those who have been hurt.
I agree empathy comes first. I should have stated that first clearly. But I never blamed the trans community for 1 trans shooter; I don't blame Muslims for terrorism by other muslims ; & I never once attacked an atheist after they attacked my "primitive" belief system & spiritually.
So well said, and exhibiting the understanding and compassion I have seen from many people of faith who truly try to follow their beliefs. One of the kindest people I met after my husband passed was a Jehova's Wittiness, who saw how sad & upset I was when I answered the door.
She asked if there was anything she could do to help, and I started crying. She hugged me and asked to come in. She never talked about her church, just sat with me for an hour as I talked about my husband of 32 years and our life together. I'll be forever grateful that she was on my doorstep.
Somehow the first part of my post didn't post. This lady was a Jehova's Witness who came to my door after my husband had passed and noticed how upset I was.
Excellent response 💯
Thank you.💙
Relationships aren’t real unless a middle aged guy in a suit pronounces it in the name of a Middle Eastern guy that came back from the dead? An interesting superstition but I think a beachfront ceremony in Cabo San Lucas with a band accompaniment is preferable.
Love your response.
Thank you 💙
Charlie you are my kinda follow. Going so now.
Florida isn’t a real state.
Once the Oceans rise enough from global warming, Florida won't exist at all
Yup. O well.
The one thing I don't like about BlueSky is, I see your reply in my notifications, but I don't know what you are responding to. I've looked at every menu but don't see a way to pull up the original post that I responded to that you are responding to. But thanks for responding, I guess?
Here is the beginning of the thread: bsky.app/profile/mrsb...
Good for you!
Thank you.💙
Bravo!
Yeah, look what happened to that bitch! I’m hoping she is in jail now! I will have no sympathy for her at all and no one else should either.
Someone should draw a big picture of Rump on the street and watch them twist in knots on what to do about it.
Would people stop in the middle of the street to pee if P47 were painted on the street?
Everybody Chalk Up!
Chalk drawings. patch.com/new-york/new...
Does this put an end to hop-scotch?
Doesn't say anything about defacing signs and hazard barriers. 🤔🤔🤔
😡
FUCK this FREE STATE OF FLORIDA bull shit...cause that is exactly what it is. And the sun addled old assholes in floriduh believe it... I know because my mom lives in a 55 plus community in Phoenix and the place went entirely for trump.... Except for mom; voted to see the first woman president.
Here in Florid-DUH comments on anything that refutes THEIR truth is met with such disdain and insulting of the messenger
Republican sanctioned killing.
Repugs DO NOT CARE about stopping mass shootings
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Snowflakes
Those of us who remember Floriduh before the Repugnant Nazi Party took over enjoyed Art in Public places, especially the temporary chalk drawings. Sidewalk Sam was quite popular and even made DEI Drawings.
Of course they are.
What about a handheld wireless projector with a slide of a rainbow? No defacing. No impeding of traffic.
They go low WE go high 😍
Genius.
youtu.be/6r5oeNaxyPM?...
I really hate these people.
Everybody wear rainbow tshirts and cross the street over and over
Small government, amirite?
You know who I'm surprised isn't speaking up about school shootings? Law enforcement. Especially any law enforcement that has had to go in and deal with the bodies of children who've been shot dead in cold blood. Why aren't they speaking? That trauma has to be brutal, where are they?
The race to the bottom, but Texas is still ahead.
That's because there's mass money to be made off mass shootings. The doom of this country will come down to this: that decency could not be viewed as profitable.
They'll be blocking Babbitt's funeral then?
And that sums up DeSatan perfectly!
They're so fucked up! Moral fibre of a piece of string. And DeSantis doesn't even keep emergency string in his pockets!
if the money of plutocrats is "free speech;" chalk is damn right fucking free speech.
They are just furious that gay people exist & they can’t make them go away. And we can sympathize bc we feel the same way about intolerant, arrogant fascists. We can’t make them go away either. But fortunately self destruction is their forte’. You can’t attack people & not get attacked yourself. /1
If only they would just punch themselves in the face & skip the middleman. Bc that’s the end result. Hate only propagates pain & misery, the perpetrators end up losing most of all. They are just too dumb to see it. Example: round up all the field workers & deport them or make them too afraid to/2
Work, bc you hate “illegals” which can comfort them when they are starving to death bc our food rotted in the fields & dear leader cut off imports from other countries. So the price of racism is starvation. Be careful what you wish for/3
Street Commun!sts and their love for petty vandalism. 🙄
If we saw this in hs, me and my friends would have new signs hanging on our walls. Unrelated, also in hs, every Mercedes Benz hood ornament in our neighborhood mysteriously disappeared and turned up as keychains 🙈🙉🙊
One of a child's favorite passtime.
The waste of my tax dollars fighting against painted sidewalks.
There’s more foundation on both DeSantises anyway
Yep
Wait, ... what? What about hopscotch? How woke is the GOP these days to be so thin-skinned, angry, and heartless about a mass shooting? Florida is Russia now. This similar to what Putin did to Navalny's memorial - took names and arrested mourners.
And we now understand the assignment!!
I note that in the image, the manhole cover has an image of Florida in rainbow colours!
Petty and cruel!
I would get 100 people with walkers to shut that mf down. Back and forth bitches.
Need to get out there with road paint
The sign says "the free state of florida"! Please confirm that they have left the United States and established their own country!!!
Ron DeSantis will be go-go dancing in his white boots at the Dickhead Disco on Bigotry Boulevard.
W T A F is mother fucking wrong with these hateful mother fuckers. FUCK ALL OF YOU.
They are sick. How can humans not understand humanity?
The faint colors where they washed it away makes me so sad. They expended time, energy, and money to make the world less colorful.
It has been suggested that we paint the grass rainbow colors in front of Pulse.
Desatan completely tone deaf and ignorant of the prevailing winds. Can’t wait til he fades into obscurity.
Hey! Roadways and sidewalks have feelings too ya know!!
Well, it says no defacing but not ‘no defacating’ so……
Sad
Looks like those signs are doing a good job of DEFACING the sidewalk - at least when chalked, pedestrians can still safely walk on the sideWALK.
We are not the same.
OH POOP, I was just on my way out to deface a sidewalk. We used to call it HOP SCOTCH...
Chalk is the new woke.
Can chalk really be coated defacement, though? When it rains it will be gone. Would this actually hold up as a charge?
That is unimaginable but not if you’re DeSatan!
Republicans are the very worst of all people.
Sigh. Of course that is the foremost problem on our minds. Sigh. Sigh. sigh.
Define “defacing”. Rainbow colors are not defacing. “Fuck trump” painted on the sidewalk, however acceptable the statement, might be considered defacing. The rainbow could be art. What if each area had an image drawn that just happened to correspond with a rainbow? Urban mural art.
Is there a law saying they can't use chalk? If not, then chalk every crosswalk in town! Grab a copy of your state and federal constitution and have law enforcement show you where it says it is illegal.
Fuck them, chalk it up again! And again, and again..
Bound to be thousands of walls to chalk.. They can't outlaw everywhere
Deathsantis is boarding on asshole status
Can we deface signs saying not to deface sidewalks?
Fuck vile bigoted scum like DeSantis and the maggot garbage
It doesn't say you can't deface the signs.
I'm waiting for someone to spray paint over those stupid signs.
Imagine continuing to vote for the people who care more about stopping a memorial.
🤣🤣🤣
Why am I all of a sudden terrified by this lovely image?
This says volumes!
Florida is for assholes
I guess at this point, all we can hope for is a D-day. We need the free world to help us to get rid of fascism. Normandy style.
If you guys can't muster the energy to even get 3.5% of your population out in protest, you can't expect the world to believe you actually want rescue. Get out on September 1st. Show your solidarity to each other and to the world. Show your opposition to the oppressive dictatorship you suffer.
3.5% is not a rule. Even the authors say in retrospect, historically. It is not that 3.5% show up and suddenly the regime falls. Showing up in masses is great, but it is not enough. There are many playbooks, for example by Robert Riech. 3.5% or not, people need to read, learn, and follow them.
I didn't say that suddenly the regime falls, nor that its a rule, but if you can't show that much interest, you can't expect other countries to come to your rescue is all.
Point Taken.
I hate Florida politics
Someday, a replica will be in the Smithsonian.
Florida did the victim's family dirty.
I think there might be a shortage on chalk!
🤬
The greedy, corrupt little nazi meatball “governing” FL sure does have his priorities straight. Only in De Satan’s Florida is a rainbow more threatening than a rifle. His idea of ‘woke’ is so twisted! Mourning kids is “too political” but mass shootings? Business as usual. Fucking nazi.
Just ban DeSantis, problem solved.
Snowflakes
But disrespecting groups of people is just fine.
Can’t wait till they start arresting kids for doodling in their driveway.
Bunch of pussies
In case you haven't noticed: Florida has not been a "Free" state for quite a while now. Sooo, what did you expect?👽
Use spray paint
The sign reads, NO IMPEDING TRAFFIC. The chalk has that effect on traffic? Florida, why are you afraid of rainbows?
Also imagine banning CHALK on sidewalks and streets and calling yourself the party of freedom!
Defacing America with fascism is ok. Maybe that needs to be the new secret code and see how fast they remove it.
Paint the signs rainbow.
Nazis at work Rules enforced by penalty of death
So removing what was there isnt?
Pathetic.
Need a link to the bail fund... keep chalking
Can deface the sidewalk or impede traffic. What about gaying up those barricades? They need a makeover.
Bigoted cowards. Up to the people of Florida to get rid of them.
How do you think their priorities got so screwed up?
If only they'd put up "Use of Firearms Prohibited" signs on the walls outside the church...
Here we are….
Dontcha know? MAGA says empathy is "woke" and makes you gay.
Never forgive and never forget the Republicans betrayal of our Constitution and America for #TraitorTrump & #Project2025. Always fight fascism. Always.
Never forgive and never forget the Republicans betrayal of our Constitution and America for #TraitorTrump & #Project2025. Always fight fascism. Always.
Those possessing Colored Chalk will be arrested for intent to deface
Shine colored lights down upon it.
The minds of these people. The soulless nothingness.. bsky.app/profile/stre...
Serious sde FL
I wonder if DeSantis freaks out when his children draw rainbows and rips them up?
Triggered 🧏♂️ Rainbows🌈 Glitter ✨ 🤌👊🫳🧑🏾🎤👩🎤👨🎤🫴Their up for the task ☝️🤌 🫶
It's time for Rainbow Crosswalk stickers to start showing up on vertical surfaces near crosswalks across the entire country, but mainly where DeSantis will see them everyday, as an uncontrollable reminder of how petty and insignificant his little ego is. What a pathetic career. What a wasted life.
The best way to respond to this is to have hundreds of "FU DeSantis" communities around the country paint their own crosswalks in solidarity with the Pulse supporters. Make sure to publish each project publically far and wide, esp. to DeSantis's face. Let that creep know how little control he has.
Priorities, right???
GOP has always cared more about perception than reality.
Unfortunately, we don't have to imagine it.
and defunding mass shooting prevention program before this massacre 😔🤔
Those signs need some rainbow paint
Soulless turds.
Please share‼️ find your Labor Day September 1 protest here. Search the map for your local protest. www.mobilize.us
Wonder what code #DONOTCOMPLY !
If those signs were honest, they'd say "speech the governor doesn't like prohibited".
why don't they just apply thoughts and prayers? that should stop people with loaded chalk sticks...
Apparently, blood stains are ok. Chalk, not so much.
I don’t get the attraction of Florida. But then I’m not a billionaire who saves enough in taxes to buy a Taj Mahal residence.
There’s no hate like “Christian” love
While the local officials are busy “protecting” THIS intersection, people should make it their mission to color every other crosswalk in the city…the ones they aren’t watching. Make the job of protecting intersections impossible.
It’s really not very Disney of them.
Sidewalk chalking: a thriving institute activity during finals bc it’s good for our wellbeing
DeSantis has decreed that every decorated area of road in Florida be paved over and threatens to withhold state funds from localities that don't comply. It ALL started with his resentment of the rainbow crosswalk outside the Pulse site. The nasty slug is pretending it's all about road uniformity.
It started earlier than that but he has felt especially emboldened to carry out his hatred of the LGBTQ+ community by erasing all visible public expressions of the community and of Pride. The intent is to eradicate the LGBTQ+ community from public existence. Books bans and other started long before.
Repressed homosexuality is a curse
Right, of course. When I say "it all started," I mean his blotting out of all road art of any type, whether *he* considers it "political" or not. Not his holy war against anyone who's not a white, straight, preferably male god-botherer (except for, say, Bridget Ziegler).
Those hideous signs do more “defacing” than multi-color chalk.
Those signs can easily be removed. The effort to silence people cannot be ignored!!
Well. Priorities.
Not sure if crosswalks qualify as sidewalks. If so, they can always paint a rainbow stripe down the middle of the street. 😃
I’m sure Ted Cruz will soon be pontificating about too many doors at Uvalde, too many windows in Minneapolis, and too much chalk in Orlando.
Too bad they aren't prohibiting defacing of the Florida governor's mansion with dipshit's presence.
DeSanitizing free speech in Florida.
It’s a free country! *terms and conditions apply; including but not limited to sidewalk chalk censorship
Is there any way that a memorial to the memorial could be made?
About sums up the leadership in Florida.
I don't see anything about not burning signs.
Or AmeriKKKan flags...😏
Florida’s gonna Florida (says a Floridian)
MAGA is all about freedom, right????
gop thinking pattern... This is why no respect or believe them...
🙄
The GOP way...
It’s like FL and TX are competing daily who has the dumbest and racist population.
Florida wins dumbest Texas wins most racist
It's more about blocking a memorial for a PARTICULAR mass shooting.😮💨
"you don't understand, we can't focus on preventing mass shootings of children, healthcare for all, or improving the economy because brown people exist & poor people are terrorizing these streets with chalk! Also, I'm mad that I find trans people attractive!" - the stupid bigot party
Can you be a snowflake and a fascist at the same time??🤔🤔🤔
This is how the world reacts to the news of another mass shooting in the US, YAWN!!!
Guns don’t kill people, chalk does. HobbyKraft require a positive mental health assessment, no previous offences, a 24 hour cooling off period & proof that the chalk will be locked in a childproof safe. It’s time for action
Stop obeying fascist laws. Get in good trouble.
Florida Man, Florida Man Doing the things that none understand What's he love, only destruction Florida Man
Have to appreciate the irony of the sign saying don't impede traffic,but it blocks the sidewalk
Send in the National Guard!
All those signs are more distracting than honoring victims. wtf is wrong with people.
This is your chance #gayflorida EVERY SIDEWALK…EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD. They can’t watch all of them. Go to town!!
In the “Free” state of Florida, as dictated by Sean Duffy…DOT f#ckt@rd
Despicable party, Despicable governor, And yes I'm going to say it, Deplorable state.
Nazi state within a soon Nazi Nation
"When I walk a rainbow crosswalk, my butthole tingles. I know Satan's trying to get in there." - Proud Boy
Republicans only care about one thing, things that don’t breathe, think, or bleed.
I think it’s time just to spray paint the word PULSE in any color of spray paint on any government building And the more copies, the better Graffiti abatement is expensive
yes, the magaites care far far more for their ideological extremist doctrines than they do about children, families, or any other human being.
What FLORIDIANS have been paying for are THE FELONS many STAGED IMMIGRATION CRUELTY SHOWS in order to try & make THE FELON LOOK LIKE A STRONG MAN! That’s bc he’s REALLY a vicious evil cruel whiny petty revengeful MONSTER!
Geeze The priorities of the red… they certainly escape me. I want to protect, feed, and educate kids for starters.
We have a local artist who makes amazing chalk art on sidewalks and streets. They look 3D. So his work would be illegal if we live in Florida? Screw that. And screw desecrating memorials to the dead, too!
Got to get the Chalk Producers on board.
And how is this "small government" or "local control" Of course those only matter when Republicans don't want to be told what to do...
I wonder if someone can put up one of the those light projections and make the crosswalk rainbow again when the sun goes down. I would love to see them trying to figure out where it's coming from and try to remove it
Republicans proving that Americans are intelligent ad a box of rocks.
What was it the Rs used to warn about, Big Bother govt, no freedom,etc.? I guess that was all a bunch of lies, shocking....
Oh no!!! Some signs will definitely jeep people from doing things
Desatan strikes again!
So much useless, pointless hate
Florida!! Someone needs to walk by and accidentally spill rainbow glitter!
De Satanis is an imbecile. And a monster. May he die screaming. And soon!
😡
Florida is a RED state. RED is in the Pride Flag. I support those who continue to paint or chalk the intersection near the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando.
Is he still doing young girl VJ inspections on CCTV?
Fucking idiots
Protect the most vulnerable of community’s @blacktranstexas.bsky.social Has been hospitalized from a physical attack from transphobic hate. They need help getting a wheel chair after leaving hospital.
These people are evil incarnate.
If you live in Florida there's only one thing to do. Get out there and buy all the sidewalk chalk and show these nazis your creativity Every Single Day and Night
#Repubs2Weak2SeeARainbowCrosswalk #Repubs2Weak2StandUp2Trump #Repubs2Weak2StandUp4America
I'm the plaintiff in Bledsoe v Ferry County. That's cited FEDERAL caselaw AGAINST prosecuting chalk on public spaces as free speech. I look forward to each protester that gets arrested winning their own lawsuit. Good luck DeSatan.
Good one.🤣😂
If a cop makes an arrest knowing it’s unconstitutional ie a sign stating it, would qualified immunity still apply ?
Thank you for taking that battle on ❤️ These hateful rancid fools would, without a doubt, go as far as banning kids from playing hopscotch on their sidewalks just so they could punish people for being unlike themselves.
I hope some clever folks put on masks and hoodies and go out at night and spray paint it VERY quickly and leave. Do not relent!
Seems to me the signs are doing all 3 things and therefore should be prohibited..thank you for your attention to this matter..Vote Blue
