The unwritten policy went into effect shortly after Governor Rick Scott,

their dismay.

While less formal, the Florida policy is reminiscent of a 2012 law
passed by lawmakers in North Carolina that prohibits the state from
basing coastal policies on scientific predictions regarding sea level
rise. Scientists have warned that, like much of Florida's coastline,
North Carolina's outer banks are at particular risk from climate change.

Because...wherever that is, stupid runs high and deep there.

The last verse of the Maryland state song says it all


I hear the distant thunder-hum,
Maryland!
The Old Line's bugle, fife, and drum,
Maryland!
She is not dead, nor deaf, nor dumb-
Huzza! she spurns the Northern scum!
She breathes! she burns! she'll come! she'll come!
Maryland! My Maryland!

They are unreconstructed southerners.

I doubt state employees here will be told not to use the terms Florida
state employees were told not to use in regard to climate change.

No they just sing about spurning the northern scum. Wonder who that
means?

I vaguely remembered that little diddy from when we used to sing in
school.
It is interesting it hasn't been scrubbed.

As for global warming, it has been going on since the rise of

techniques and scrub a few billion off the population?

In the years I have lived in Maryland, I have never heard the state song
sung, not at ball games, festivals, or even at the opening of the

In a further assault on sanity, your state's backwards Republican

safety with their patients.

Why would anyone expect firearm tips from a doctor who probably never
owned one or had any training himself?

Nonsense. Medical professionals can advise how to keep children safe from
firearms. Is this just more of your resentment of people with advanced
degrees in the professions?

Doctors are qualified to ask whether a household has firearms and
whether they are locked up and kept away from children. My wife
sometimes asks that question of patients who are out of control and
their family members and advises the family members to remove the
firearms from the household.

It has been in the news for several years relating to Florida.

"In Florida, in 2011, a law was signed that made it illegal for doctors
to ask patients if they owned a gun. If doctors violate this law, they
can be disciplined, leading to fines, citations and even a loss of their
license.

A lower court struck down the law in 2012. But last week, a panel of
judges on the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit upheld
it. In their ruling, the judges declared that the law regulates
physician conduct “to protect patient privacy and curtail abuses of the
physician-patient relationship.” The clear assertion of the judges is
that there is no legitimate health reason to be asking about gun ownership."
