Happy Richard Spencer in Gainesville Day. Yeah, that's a weird sentence, if you're into treating all people like people. Stay safe, everybody. But that is for tomorrow's Sh*t Happened. We came today to discuss yesterday, no?
A charter plane made an emergency landing on St. Pete's 18th Avenue South, hitting two cars, sustaining a ton of damage and sending four people to the hospital.

Pasco Middle and High Schools were put into a "controlled campus" situation and "their active threat plan was implemented" when a student with a gun was spotted as class was letting out for the day.
