This is NOT just a Florida thing.

NRA friendly gun laws are a nationwide pandemic.

Racism and racial profiling is a nationwide pandemic.

Skirting clear criminal liability can happen anywhere.

People who think that this is a Florida thing,and who think solution can be solved by a silly boycott have totally missed the boat.

It can and will happen where you live.

Trust me, as a Floridian I'm as sickened and embarassed by the verdict as they come.

But this isn't a Florida thing. It's an American thing. And we need to address it from a nationwide perspective.
