Yes I've heard there are some surplus uniforms with white armor at Disney World that he's looking to use for this "Guard".

The National Guard can be called to federal service. He wants a militarized group that's completely under his control.

If Florida moves ahead with DeSantis' plan to reestablish the civilian force, it would become the 23rd active state guard in the country, DeSantis' office said in a press release, joining California, Texas and New York

Is saying that almost half the states already have this?

An army of Florida Men doesn't sound THAT alarming. Probably implodes the first weekend they're active over at Bart's Beers or some shit.

I would have to read up on the details I guess, I always thought the governor could order out the National guard.

I know I saw them deployed for flooding and storms etc in North Dakota and Minnesota, I dont think those were state guard.

Sounds like just more partisan bullshit, he doesn't want to be beholden to the Biden admin so he gets his own people instead of the National Guard

In theory, it's not the worst idea, and it's perfectly constitutional - like the article says almost half the states have something similar. BUT, it's DeSantis, so we automatically know his motives are pure evil.

He has it. Bunch of morbidly obese old guys riding mobility scooters with assault rifles. The unstoppable force, unless they come upon their mortal enemy. Stairs.

Yeah, no shit. He has a massive track record of doing the worst thing possible, so of course it's important because it's him doing it.

I like how his spin on having the literal worst surge in cases of any state ever is that they eventually went down by over 90%. Because that's how big numbers work.

I mean, this would make Florida the 23rd state to do this. Hardly an outlier

This always ends well. Just ask everyone who lived through the last 50 years or so of the Roman Republic. When politicians begin creating armies that answer only to them your society is doomed.
