Meet woman who shouted at Gov. Rick Scott

In many ways, the 39-year-old activist, who likes to snorkel and watch independent films, is all that Scott isn't. The former teacher is a vegan who helps to build community gardens. She has protested against the Florida Power & Light and most recently against police brutality.

"Currently I am focused on immigrant rights and environmental racism issues," Jennings said on Facebook.

During her 2010 political campaign, Jennings told the In These Times that she identified as an "anarchist" because she believes that there shouldn't be a hierarchy in government and that all decisions should be made at the community level.

"I'm not anti-government," Jennings said. "I'm for the utmost public input into the things that impact our lives."

1. She did what we all probably dream of doing.

I know I have.

2. She didn't go far enough

She should have told him

"AN YOU LOOK LIKE A PENIS WITH EARS!"

3. Now SHE is as American as you get - bold, outspoken, liberal -

I admire her because she's helping to expose the crookedness of people like Scott. He can do some really outrageous things to people in Florida and get away with it, but he CAN'T show his face in public without knowing that those he shafted are going to tell him exactly how they feel about him and what he's done.

Relatedly, isn't it sad that our lapdog press has almost completely abdicated truth-telling, leaving that necessary social function (in a healthy, democratic society) to ordinary citizens who are brave enough to take risks and do it, instead? K&R

4. I'm just here to read the comments regarding her right to own a laptop and drink coffee at Starbucks

because there's always one that just has too.

5. I think I've seen him in a video game.

6. So cool, Mika. She needs a huge pat on the back. THAT's someone who can rise to the occassion.

Who wouldn't love to be able to do that?

Who could think of what to say so quickly, and do it so well?

"You're an embarrassment to our state." Wow!

[Orrex]

7. What we need now is some noble DUer to stride in...
