Freedom from fear should be every person’s birthright, President Franklin D. Roosevelt famously said. But that is not to be in Ron DeSantis’ Florida.
The governor goes on a lot about freedom, but with him it means sacrificing public health and safety to self-indulgence.
First it was the freedom to forgo masks and vaccines in the face of a lethal pandemic. Now it means freedom to carry a concealed weapon almost everywhere without having to obtain a permit after a background check and safety training.
