The NAACP's national board of directors has issued a formal travel advisory for Florida, warning black and LGBTQ people against visiting the state due to Governor Ron DeSantis' policies.
'Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals,' states the advisory issued on Saturday night by the civil rights group.
'Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color,' it adds.

Were this true, I might consider going back to Florida.

Hahaha, this will be a colossal flop, like tip-filcher AOC's call for truckers to boycott FL. Pass the popcorn,

DeSantis essentially doubled down on the law - you will not expose children, under the age of consent to sexual propaganda and other stimuli or literature that might be considered Grooming, nor defy the will of those children's parents.
Simple enough.
He told pedophiles to restrain their tendencies.

Hey NAACP, don't forget to remind the black colleges around spring break next year. We really don't need the violence. Thanks.

I live in Florida. I hope the brain washed liberals believe every single word and go elsewhere. Florida is a place for people who seek good old fashion Constitutional freedom. All others need to stay in their 'Sodom and Gamora' states.

Please don’t believe me when I claim to feel sympathy for the hurt and hostility evident from other than “white” people. These OTWhite people, actually only a small portion of them, are so fragile and sensitive to the imagined views of others, including those others having just a tiny shade of difference in tint or physiognomy.

One more reason for supporting DeSantis. Only question is how does one support two exceptional Republicans for President, Don and Ron? Will make an interesting bumper sticker. “I’m with _0N..

I've got news for you, the majority of blacks absolutely do not like the LGBTQ crowd at all, so this is just more lies by race baitors.

I think those Poor "people of color" should quit making Demands and Get a Job! If they had jobs they wouldn't be standing on the Streets harassing people like that Poor Nurse who was just trying to get Home after working a 12 Hour Shift. I would like to see a sign over all of NYC saying " Don't come here unless you plan to get a job because we just shut off the Freebies! I would like to see NYC make a Law that Protesting will get you a big fine and a month in Jail! I bet the folks who live in NY would love that! Blacks should get over their never ending demands that others OWE them anything! Get a Job and take care of yourself! Meanwhile, those of us who live in Florida LOVE what Our Governor did, and if that makes the Blacks and Other Grifters not like Florida and keeps them from coming here, well! Hip Hip Hooray!!

The NAACP is no longer concerned about race, if it ever was. Their objective is far left politics--the further left, the better.

One of the posters made a big Point here in stating that most blacks do not support all this craziness. They are having the same problem we have their leadership doesn't listen to them and is only interested in promoting what causes. Eventually this could end up with some of them refusing to vote for the Dems.

The NAACP is irrelevant and has been for decades. They issue these ridiculous statements on occasion just to get their initials out there in the media.

There are essentially 4 major LGB tourism destinations in the US. Fire Island, Palm Springs, Key West and Ft Lauderdale. Did the NAACP consult with the LGB leadership in those cities before calling for a statewide boycott??
I can assure you, that no person of color or person of alternate sexuality has been inconvenienced, let alone harmed by a single DeSantis policy. Unless that persons sole function is grooming or mutilating children.

Florida is hostile to criminals. Is the NAACP equating blacks to criminals? That sounds racist to me.

If this Florida travel boycott actually transpires, watch the tourism numbers in Florida double. It's kind of like lowering taxes brings more revenue into the government, a concept the progressives have never accepted, although decades of results are there for their viewing pleasure.

Shoot, DeSantis needs to be thanking them!!!
I thank the NAACP is about to discover how little influence they have on anybody but racist white lie-berals these days. Black college student sure aren't going to stay away from those nice beaches on spring break, black families are still going to flock to Disney World, and Miami is the warm weather Mecca for homosexuals!!!

National Association of Liberal Colored People, as Rush told us.
Does this directive mean all the blacks in Florida will be moving out?

Here's a big "what if" scenario: What if a white organization, lets call it the NAAWP (National Association for the Advancement of White People) called for a travel advisory against visiting cities like Detroit, Chicago or NYC due to rampant black crime? How would that play in the media...not too w3ll I would think. There would be the usual claims of racism, white supremacy, etc.

We need an AAA alert about travel to cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington DC, New York, Boston, St Louis, and any other American city that has either a sizable black population, or is governed by a black mayor, and it’s laws enforced by a black DA.
I’m tired of this sh**.
