DeSantis Team Pushes Back After Establishment Media Smears Peaceful Cuba Protests: These Are ‘Not Riots’

 

The Miami Herald’s editorial board published a piece Tuesday with a glaring headline loaded with suspicion: “DeSantis’ anti-riot law didn’t apply as Cuba protesters shut down a Miami-Dade road. Hmmm…”

 

“Florida’s misbegotten anti-riot law leaves even peaceful demonstrators subject to being arrested if a protest is arbitrarily deemed a ‘riot.’ The law explicitly makes blocking a highway a felony offense,” the board wrote.

 

“Worse, it gives civil legal immunity to people who drive through protesters who are blocking a road — basically, encouraging haters to do just that,” it asserted.

 

One of the Florida demonstrations saw protesters blocking State Road 826 on Tuesday, prompting DeSantis critics to sound the alarm. But, as DeSantis’s office pointed out, protesters were compliant with local law enforcement, and that is exactly what the anti-riot law does — empowers local law enforcement. Demonstrators were not attacking police officers, charging vehicles, or defacing property, all of which served as hallmarks of the violent Black Lives Matter and Antifa protests that devastated communities across the country last year. Even ABC News recognized the crowd of demonstrators as “peaceful.”

 

However, the Miami Herald’s editorial board overlooked those factors and offered a suggested quote for the governor: “Nah, the Miami-Dade demonstrators seeking human rights in Cuba have nothing to fear from my anti-riot law. We created it to subdue Black folks seeking human rights in the United States.”

Miami Herald went to the Adam Schiff school of "quoting". Despicable.
