"The Free State of Florida" is on the cusp of having the most oppressive hate crime laws in America in order to "combat anti-Semitism."

HB 269/SB 994, which sponsor Rep. Randy Fine (R) said earlier this year was written to make hate-filled anti-Semitic "littering" a felony punishable by five years in prison, has been passed unanimously by the GOP-controlled Florida House and Senate with zero concerns for the First Amendment.

"Nazis, take note," Rep. Fine, who is Jewish, commented on Twitter after the bill passed the Senate. "You're done in Florida."

"There is no First Amendment right to conduct," Jewish Florida State Rep. Randy Fine told the media earlier this year while promoting the bill. "If you graffiti a building, it is a crime now, but if your motivation is hate, it will be a third-degree felony and you will spend five years in prison. If you want to litter, it's a crime right now, but if you litter and your motivation is a hate crime, it will be a third-degree felony and you will spend 5 years in jail."

The bill was put forward by the GOP to silence the "Goyim Defense League" who've been sharing anti-Semitic flyers in Florida neighborhoods and holding up anti-Semitic banners over bridges which are critical of Jews.

Am I reading this right?

If Florida HB 269 is passed, someone who makes fun of another person’s clothes if they are considered “ethnic or religious” can be arrested & charged with a THIRD DEGREE FELONY AND HATE CRIME!

What if it is simply here say? What is the burden of proof? pic.twitter.com/yH9hGkQrmo
