Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was confronted by a local resident at a news conference held in Jacksonville this morning.
Action News Jax’s Jake Stofan was at the news conference and said the man pushed DeSantis on the way he’s handled guns and racial issues.DeSantis’ news conference at Culhane’s Irish Pub’s Tinseltown location was meant to highlight state laws passed during and after the pandemic aimed at stopping mandates and lockdowns.
But unlike the usual DeSantis-friendly crowd, one man showed up intending to tell the Governor why he did not support the Governor’s policies, and why he believes those policies share some of the blame for the racial mass shooting that took the lives of three Black residents nearly two weeks ago.The man was escorted out after the confrontation. We caught up with him after the press conference.
We’ll tell you what he had to say and hear what some local leaders thought about the way the Governor handled the interaction coming up tonight on CBS47 and FOX30 Action News Jax at 5.
