Florida has changed. Many of the undesirables moved out.



Where did they go?


Maryland?


FlaJim wouldn't like Maryland...we have a new law that would cause him
some trouble:

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

People who commit domestic violence in front of a child could face an
added penalty of up to five years in prison. The standard of evidence
for obtaining a final protective order will be reduced from "clear and
convincing" to "a preponderance of the evidence."
