one is newish, Cubans going red in droves, the other isn't, conservative legal 1st-2nd gen largely Mexicans voting red.

Not sure the electoral math on Florida changes much anyways, with felons getting the vote back and 2022 and 2024 the dems are gonna hammer that niche for registration. but we'll see.

Trump won Florida and lost, so Florida may not be the game changer it's been historically in tight races anyways. Texas wasn't really purple, and won't be for some time even if California exodus continues, so the "in roads" there are largely moot.

Republicans simply never will win over anything but an ineffectual % of minorities with bootstraps rhetoric and policy. Religious ties only go so far with those electorates. Black Baptist churches preach food stamps.

I literally linked you the standards yesterday.

If you didn't lack basic reading comprehension you would know that none of the standards, including the standards for charges listed as murder, require intent to kill.

while that's true, the blind squirrel has found a nut. being charged for killing someone and also charged again for killing the same person is a silly practice in the legal system. its a prosecutorial failsafe if they overchage and fail to get a guilty verdict on the highest charge, and sentencing rarely if ever even applies the lower charge for this very reason.

they've done similar in cases against blacks for decades, charge with theft and then criminal trespass, as if they were a trespasser as a regular customer before they stole something..... "throw the book at them" is the colloquial term.
