Florida became the second state in the country after Utah to ban local governments from adding fluoride to their public water systems.
Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the bill at Simpson Lakes in Dade City – about 38 miles northeast of Tampa – on Thursday. The law is set to go into effect on July 1.
“We certainly now, in our society in 2025, we have the ability to deliver fluoride through toothpaste and all these other things,” DeSantis said at an event for the signing of the bill. “You don’t gotta force it and take away people’s choices. But the whole crux of the issue is you should be able to make decisions on the basis of informed consent.”
“Forcing this in the water supply is trying to take that away from people who may want to make a different decision rather than to have this in water,” DeSantis added.
Sure sounds like it’s personal. But if all of us are to blame then please enlighten us, let’s hear about how you would have prevented Trump from coming to power a second time if you were American.
Protest? Look at France, take the fucking country on hold until this shit is over?
Or, you know, VOTE? Had everyone voted, we wouldn’t be having this problem.
How about crippling the country until citizens United gets repealed, and for good measure, laws are put back in place to enforce news organizations to be truthful again?
There is so much that could be done but you can’t even get your government to have remotely useful laws in gun control in a place where litter children regularly get slaughtered.
People are literally toying with idead about bullet proof blankets and teachers in kindergarten with guns. Your country is fucking insane and it’s affecting the rest of the world so yeah, I dgaf anymore about amerucans dying, you’ve done it to yourself.
Get your shit together
