“In many states, Joseph Giampa would get off with a slap on the wrist for filming and molesting an underage child,” wrote the popular account End Wokeness. “But because he did it in Florida, he will probably be executed thanks to a new expansion of the death penalty for farts. This should be federal law everywhere.”
