And residents put it right back.

Did they? I can't find a source indicating that it has been restored
[edit]
Found this:
Sidewalk chalk so it's temporary
-
It starts with chalk, becomes a rally, and ends with victory

"I cannot believe that the [Florida Governor Ron] DeSantis administration has engaged in this hostile act against the city of Orlando," he said.
You can't believe it? I can't believe they didn't do it sooner
-
It's limitless the lengths the bigots and fascists will go to own the libs.

"Political banners have no place on public roads," he said in a social media post. "Taxpayers expect their dollars to fund safe streets, not rainbow crosswalks."
I would argue it’s safer because it’s easier to see, especially for those who have some form of colorblindness.
-
WTF is "political" about this?
-
It shouldn’t be.

especially for those who have some form of colorblindness.
black/white color blindness is not really a thing... Adding colors for color blind people could in theory make it harder to distinguish the crosswalk pattern.
The real "risk" here is that new things make drivers turn stupid. If you've ever lived in a small city that added some traffic feature after 20 years of not having it... you'll hear about how people have crashed or broken all sorts of shit for years after. I would be most worried about that... But if that's not happening, then I don't see an issue.

They're removing one in a town near me due to the same bullshit line but the tax payers didn't pay for it lol it was privately funded.
-
Lol. Lmao. I thought the same thing when they painted the thin blue line down the middle of street in front of the police station in my city.

Conservatives love oppression.

Ron desantis is a major child predator. Ron desantis loves to rape kids. It’s a fact. Everyone knows it.
-
Classy
-
Surely you can’t be a DeSantis and have no gay friends or coworkers. I wonder what kind of enemies he’s forming with shit like this.
-
I think they could've had a better memorial.
They should get one now that this has been removed.

The guy loves sexy lifted boots, just saying. 2 snaps in a Z formation!
