Last week, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis traveled to a foreign country to sign legislation that makes it a felony crime for anyone to distribute literature containing speech that an individual may finds offensive, harassing or threatening.

This measure is a heinous overreach that attacks the 1st Amendment of the Constitution, setting the stage for conservatives to be thrown in jail for spreading their message, and Democrats are taking notice.

In Michigan, Democrats are following in DeSantis’ footsteps and moving quickly to criminalize free speech as well:

Without any physical contact, vandalism or a threat of harm, virtually all speech will be able to be criminalized, as long as some snowflake cries and plays the victim. In an age of Soros-funded DAs, prosecutors and liberal activist judges, this is a recipe for disaster, enabled by the reckless policies of DeSantis.

Big League Politics reported on DeSantis signing HB 269 into law during a surprise visit to Israel last week:

“Florida Governor Ron DeSantis flew to a foreign country on Thursday to sign an anti-hate speech law that makes speech deemed “harassment” or “intimidation” a felony punishable by 5 years in prison.

DeSantis signed HB 269 in Jerusalem, and it is being touted as a law to combat anti-Semitism by its proponents…

The measure makes it an explicit felony hate crime to distribute literature in a door-to-door manner if that literature is arbitrarily deemed to be harassment or intimidation by its recipient.
