Except in Florida, Suze, where alas burning a Confederate flag remains illegal, statute cited by floridapolitics@gmail.com.

(3) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent the use of any flag, standard, color, shield, ensign, or other insignia of Florida or of the Confederate States for decorative or patriotic purposes [sic].]
That florida statute is clearly unconstitutional, and should be violated with glee.
Statute clearly violates 1st Amendment to the Constitution but have you ever used your right of free speech with a police officer in the performance of his duties?
I don’t mind getting arrested but incarceration sucks; sure you get free room and board but: food sucks; hotel staff has bad attitude, and you can’t check out when you want.
Besides, Orlando mis-leaders made panhandling a crime: [Consider the sad cases of Roosevelt Richardson, incarcerated 123 times ove 10 years for the crimes of: “panhandling and other petty crimes such as loitering, urinating in public and trespassing.” (Full story below.) That averages out to over once a month for TEN years.]

Don’t even get me started on Food Not Bombs vs Orlando court decision where judge ruled feeding the homeless did not constitute protected free speech, despite statements by a responding by a police ofc at the feeding and our esteemed Mayor, “Buddy Dyer.”
FNB cool for vegans but cannot personally make anything without some pork fat.
Snarki, please use capital “F” when spellin’ Florida or elsen we-uns gonna have to come up there and learn you-uns some spellin’.
