unfortunately the legislation is inevitable. Florida's neoconservative legislature has decided the only way to win elections consistently is with increasingly divisive culture-war brinksmanship. That the strategy works is unimpressive as fear and uncertainty are powerful motivators, regardless of outcome. That it has become such a consistent pattern in the past forty years of Republican leadership is mournful to say the least because its doomed to fail at the national level.
The effort to recriminalize non-heteronormative behavior is a telling sign this party of small government and personal liberty has run out of motivational boogeymen.
