Florida bill allowing radioactive roads made of potentially cancer-causing mining waste signed by DeSantis

As if I didn't need another reason to ever visit Flordia. Better include Georgia, Alabama Louisiana and South Carolina as a buffer zone while I'm at it.

If this chucklehead ever sees the general, we need to crucify him with this conspicuously braindead stuff that literally no one, even the nutballs, want around them.
