       As of September 25, 2025, open carry became legal in Florida. A person can now carry a firearm anywhere, including government buildings or government-owned outdoor areas in the State – as well as any privately owned business, unless they opt out. So what does that mean for “Florida’s Friendliest Hometown?” Well, imagine someone having consumed one too many at a town square and that someone is openly carrying a firearm when he/she spies someone wearing a tee shirt with a saying s/he doesn’t like? What could possibly go wrong? So just to be clear, according to The Villages administration, open carry is allowed everywhere in public facilities in The Villages.

     I was sad to learn the Biden administration plans to spend $1 billion to increase the nation’s slaughter capacity. Instead, the White House should invest these funds into open-access cultivated-meat research. For those who don’t know, cultivated meat is grown from animal cells, without slaughter. It’s better for the environment, public health and animal welfare.

     While private funding for cultivated meat is surging, public investment is tepid. This needs to change. For those who aren’t familiar with the concept, cultivated meat is grown from animal cells, without slaughter. It’s better for the environment, public health, and animal welfare.

      As experts predict another surge of coronavirus, Senators Marco Rubio and Tim Scott should help prevent the next pandemic, specifically by investing more government resources into cultivated-meat development. For those who don’t know, cultivated meat is grown from animal cells, without slaughter. Since livestock are removed the process, the risk of zoonotic diseases making the leap to humans is eliminated.

   I imagine Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott would hate if their dogs or cats were treated the way animals on factory farms are. The reality is there isn’t much difference between the furry companions we love and the livestock we slaughter. That’s why our legislators should support increased federal funding for cultivated-meat research.

     It was crazy-bizarre to watch Trump hold up a book that promotes slavery, genocidal pedophilia and even eating one€™s own children, as if, after ordering the assault of peaceful protesters he could use a church and a Bible as a photo op, to somehow show himself off to be some kind of erratic God king.
