Just a heads up, but the “Florida Man” meme is a product of Florida’s failure to provide adequate mental healthcare to it’s residents and it’s “Sunshine Law” that allows anyone access to crime records. So, basically news organizations take these records and write stories about Florida as if it is a breeding ground for insanity, when in reality it is just an example of how Republicans gutting social services just leads to higher incarceration rates of the mentally ill. This in turn leads to them still not getting access to the care they need, while also saddling them with the problems that come with being a convicted felon. I should also point out that Florida is one of the states with the highest amount of private prisons, which is no doubt why this problem persists. It’s also very fucked up that sites that report on them are so willing to exploit someone’s pain like that. Anyway, I’m not saying that you are horrible person for making the joke, but I felt the need to say something regardless. It’s not something I think most people are aware of.
