As rescue, power restoration and cleanup efforts in many parts of Florida continue in the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Ian, Gov. Ron DeSantis had some warnings for would-be looters and lawbreakers:

When it comes to MSNBC’s Joy Reid, everybody knows that DeSantis could have said “two plus two equals four” and she’d have been able to find a racist angle out of it. But Reid’s reaction to DeSantis’ warning to would-be looters says more about her than anything else:
“When the looting starts, the shooting starts.”—segregationist Miami sheriff Walter E. Headley, 1967
Didn’t take DeSantis long to return to form.https://t.co/8FJKyzQY1G https://t.co/uS5jbrx29S

“Supporting looters to own DeSantis” is the peakest of peak MSNBC takes!
Joy Reid, apparently pro-looting! https://t.co/RCkLcnnJdI

I believe there is a law in most areas against stealing. We should uphold the law. Sorry your against that. https://t.co/pCHHxztumv

Also it seems like Reid’s the one making an assumption:
Just when I thought you couldn't get any lower. Are you implying that black and brown people are looters, cause that sounds pretty racist to me. https://t.co/SRb0Owztqn

The self-owns just keep on coming from Reid… as usual.
