Re: Florida Boycott Resolution Proposed By Chris Holden, California Assemblymember ..
Unfortunately, there are many Floridians whose attitude will be "thank you" for calls for African-Americans to stay out of Florida.
Can you image the response if some group in Florida was holding rallies in Florida for the purpose of declaring African-Americans were not welcomed in Florida and should stay away?
Most people don't know anything about the case. IMO, SYG laws had absolutely nothing to do with the not guilty verdict. But it's a rallying point, so . . .
As for boycotting Florida? People don't do that. They just don't. Florida is a tourist destination and people aren't going to change vacation plans to avoid the state. If you've ever been to Florida, I think you'll find that it's not a popular tourist destination for blacks anyway. A buncha' huffin' and puffin'.
