Why do I feel like this is exactly what they want? I think the conservatives in FL government would be quite happy with more "colleges" like Liberty University.
And yeah, I'm married to an academic and they've been approached by universiies in TX and TN, but the culture there is a hard no. Why would we subject ourselves, more specifically our female children, to growing up in rhat environment?
I would be worried to death if I had female children living in those states. In Ohio they just persecuted a doctor who gave a 10 year old an abortion who was raped and impregnated. The persecuters disguised the hatred towards this hero doctor as "you shouldn't be giving up personal patient info", and obviously the names were not given just the fact that a child was about to be forced to give birth to another child.
