Borowitz: Georgia Unveils New Slogan, "We Make Florida Look Safe"

ATLANTA (The Borowitz Report)—Flanked by members of his state’s legislature on Wednesday afternoon, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal proudly unveiled Georgia’s new official state slogan, “We Make Florida Look Safe.”

Gov. Deal told reporters that the slogan was “more than just words,” reflecting Georgia’s determination to best its rival Florida for the nation’s most reckless gun law.

“When Florida passed Stand Your Ground, we knew we were playing catch-up,” Gov. Deal said. “Thanks to the fine men and women in the Georgia state legislature, we’re No. 1.”

My guess is that concealed carry will be granted to the unborn by Rick Scott.

Florida is now SAFER than Georgia. Don't worry. The Gunshine State will just play catch up, or probably outdo them.
