Protests is something we have the freedom to do - if we can't then we back in the Gestapo mentality again---- keep the freedom- too many never tasted it-

I didn't stick my nose into things until I was living here, because until I paid property taxes and was eligible to vote in Florida, it was no business of mine.

I was referring to the many who don't live here who keep trying to interject their two cents.

No one said they couldn't protest, just that they might find more beneficial things to do with the obvious free time on their hands. It's just easier to whine and stick ones hand out than to actually work towards a goal.

exercising your 1st Amendment--what could be more important? You do not want UNIONS to negotiate wages, then the people have to be heard.

But it's OK for you to interject about Seattle? You don't live there, yet you make a broad statement that only people who live an hour or two from Seattle can buy a house. That's not true.

As long as we still have free speech in this country(which is slowly being taken away) people can comment on anyplace they like.

Don't have to live somewhere to comment, especially when one is paying property tax on rental properties in Orlando ...

I do agree that politics are only a small bit of the problem.
Funny - why would anyone want to live in Seattle, NYC, SF, Houston, Dallas, etc when they could live in Orlando ? Why don't you ask the millions of residents in those cities if they 'want' to live there ?
