Are they only monitoring the garages? Or are they also handling security screenings?

Disney still handles the security screenings. They’re just monitoring the cameras, looking out for suspicious activity, etc.

I skip over the invocation. What exactly is in violation of their policy? Is the chaplain not the one that gives the invocation?

They’ve been inviting outside clergy to give the invocation.

I hate that the way do this, it’s very cringey and doesn’t belong in a public municipality meeting

If it’s a convocation then proper dress code should be in order.

I'm sure they'd be fine if someone came and did a muslim prayer for the invocation

There were a couple of filings last week by the state arguing against Disney's claims and an article highlighting them.

The memorandum also points out that Disney is relying on specious hypotheticals to make its free speech case. Disney’s attorneys have cited racial and religious discrimination cases as well as gerrymandering cases to attempt to prove the company’s point, but the CFTOD attorneys argue that these citations are useless and beside the point of the dispute between the company and the state.

The attorneys even use Disney’s own words to prove that the case deserves to be dismissed.

“Disney says ‘nobody disputes that a state may remove unelected policymaking officials from high office or that elected leaders may employ senior officers committed to implementing their political agenda,’” the attorneys argue, citing a quote from Disney’s case. “But if that is true, this case should be over because Disney’s claim is, in effect, a derivative suit asserting that Florida’s elected officials may not select the officials who oversee the District.”

I find it hard to subscribe to the district's claims Disney statements agree with them.. when they clearly take only half a statement and use it like a complete thought.

Oh and this site you linked... looks like a real winner when it comes to journalistic integrity!

I will openly admit that when my family's former beauty supply and wig business had slow months, they knew they could count on Disney's business to keep the doors open.

That’s very smart framing it like a D100 thing and using it as part of this.

 

[Surferboy567]

Do we know what this will be heard in court? Has a date been provided?

The way progress or lack of is being made , any helpful guidance can be welcomed for good luck.

This is parody right?

Disney's doing a great job at screwing themselves over, they don't need the Gov's help to wreck their business.

Just keep raising prices and lowering quality!

While an argument can be made that Disney is moving to a lower quality.

This statement is factually very much incorrect. Disney has a HUGE effect on the Florida community if that can’t been seen I don’t know what to say.

The business strategy they've adopted, in terms of premium pricing for their offerings and perceived lower value, has led to increasing numbers of guests balking at visiting. This has had an impact to Disney's bottom line many times more than anything the Gov or the State could do to them. Disney does have a huge impact on the Florida Economy, but their GREED is going to be the primary driver that negativly affects not only themselves, but dependent businesses.
