MSNBC's Joy Reid: Gov. DeSantis Is the 'Modern-Day George Wallace'
2021-04-25
[BREITBART] MSNBC host Joy Reid said Thursday on her show "The ReidOut" that Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) was the "modern-day" version of segregationist Gov. George Wallace (D-AL) for signing the state’s new anti-rioting law.

Reid said, "Republican state legislatures across the country are responding to the demonstrations over George Floyd’s murder with punitive new measures intended to discourage protests altogether. In the 2021 legislative session, politicians in 34 states have introduced more than 80 anti-protest bills. The vast majority of them drafted by Republicans. So far, four Republican governors have signed the measures into law, including in the state of Florida. If it wasn’t already clear that this is a direct response to the Black Lives Matter protests, governor Ron DeSantis actually cited the Derek Chauvin trial when he enacted what he is calling an anti-rioting law."

She continued, "As NPR reports, it creates a new crime called mob intimidation. It requires anyone arrested at a protest be denied bail until their first court appearance, likely making for overnight jail stays. In other words, it would punish anyone at a peaceful protest that might be swept up alongside bad actors. Unbelievably, that law grants civil immunity to drivers who run cars through protesters if the protesters are blocking roads."
