What is with Florida and poor urban planning? Is it just because of lax regulations compared to other states or something else?
>tfw Argentina also got cucked by the eternal anglo
>>53048216
Its not any worse than anywhere else. Also all sunbelt states have massive suburbs because of when their growth occured.
>>53048216
it's flat so lots of room to build, people pay more for "water" and it's summer homes for the northerners
there are natural reserves and stuff
>tfw Chile also got cucked by the eternal anglo
Those are favelas tho.
>>53047066
It looks great though.

you can take your boat to the store
how is that poor planning? Worse is the fucking desert where you have nothing.
>>53048821
the line you see dividing the everglades from everything else is the UDB. (urban development boundary) Nothing more can be built west. You can't start up a small village or anything there, and the land is owned by the federal government.
so the land immediately adjacent to it tries to go for a village-ish feel, while elsewhere the old suburbs and inner city areas build up instead of outward as there is no more available land left to sprawl to, yet the population continues to grow.
>>53049378
Haven't they expanded the area open for development in the past? I seem to remembr looking at the historic satellite images on Google earth and it was moving over the years.
>>53047410
And then you nuke Florida, yes? Please tell me that's the master plan.
Aren't these waters filled with gators?
>>53050450
yes
>>53050524
Fuck, americans are crazy. What if an alligator gets in the lawn or the pool or something?
>>53050605
Backyard wrestling is the state sport. There not training for nothing.
>>53050605
there are drainage, they usually don't get very big
there are removal services but once in a blue moon you will get 5ft+ ones
they mostly stay out of the way, but the discovery is usually near woods not in the water itself
>>53050605
If a gayder gits into the poowl, yall jus gadda gitcher shutgun outta the truck an kill the dang basterd. Dats hwut Gawd gave ya yer constipational gun rights for.
>>53050265
Yes, but it is very controversial and will probably not happen again. Popular opinion around the region is revolting against suburbs and highways, and the increasing population can't really support that existence all that well anyway.
My grandfather remembers woodlands becoming farms and ranches, then suburbs all in his lifetime.

>le florida is bad meme
reddit pls
>>53050605
our gators here aren't really aggressive. they're lazy bastards if anything.
that other anon was bsing....unless he is under the mistaken impression that iguanas are gators. Those are the really common ones.
>>53047066
Damn that looks cool
>>53050856
its a practical solution. sorry for killing your contraceptive factory :^)
>A Canadian tries in vain to differentiate himself from Americans
>>53050733
Most people will never see an alligator in their life outside of a zoo or intentional wildlife tour. Gator wrestling is not a thing and people will probably think of you as being a cruel idiot for suggesting it.
>>53050856
florida isn't mississippi, hans. or is it Kevin now?
How many Americans on /int/ have actually ever used their constitutionally guaranteed right to bear arms to threaten another person by pointing their gun at them?
Also, did it include you yelling at said person things like "Get off my lawn you sunuvabitch!" or "Take your hands off my truck, motherfucker!"? And how did it turn out?
I am genuinely interested.
>>53047874

probably not the best place to ask this
i haven't nor do i know anyone that has
>>53051148
Only places anybody ever pulled a gun on me was Amsterdam and Frankfurt.
What does this have to do with this thread?
>>53051148
Ive not.
Though i have sat up all night with a loaded gun when potential happenings were afoot.
Im not big into guns, i just have one as is natural for any civilized person, possessing a passing familiarity of the personal weapons of the day should the need be required.
I keep it unloaded, which /k/ would mock me for. But when ever anything starts getting tense, i load it. Then its sort of a ceremony, unloading it after the apparent threat has passed.

>>53051243
There are Americans present and I am interested.
>>53051292
What potential happenings would that be?
>>53047066
I like this.
I would love to have a boat dock behind my house.
>>53051148
I don't know anybody who has ever done that
I only have one friend who owns guns, but he owns swords too and is more of a collector than one worried with shooting dindus off his property.
going to a shooting range is honest fun though. I don't understand the mindset that holding a gun in your hand will suddenly transform you into a psychopath that thinks real life is GTA.
>>53050892
>mfw pet iguana
>>53050892
I saw plenty of gators when I lived in Florida outside the zoos. I guess what you really meant to say is that most people have very little sense of the environment around themselves.
>>53051555
>I don't understand the mindset that holding a gun in your hand will suddenly transform you into a psychopath that thinks real life is GTA.
That's not what I think would happen. I am interested in how many times the property of one or several light or heavy arms would actually make a difference when it comes to an argument that might potentially turn into a fight. Also, I figured Americans would use stark language to stand their ground while wielding their weaponry.
>>53051698
Where in Florida did you live?
people living in places like the ones posted ITT will probably never encounter one in their daily life.
>>53050605
You're supposed to call animal control, but lots of people just shoot them.
>>53051799
>using guns in the middle of an argument
nigger tier desu
>>53051148
Brah, try /k/ for this stuff. They'll tell you stories.
>>53051799
the statistics says even if people do own arms they are still more likely to get shot then to use it in defense
>>53051423
Well, a creepy vacuum salesman was stalking my mom once, trying to sell her a vacuum at 3 in the morning, coming to the door and talking about its features in a shouted conversation back and forth, thats one occasion i can remember.
There are various times the media tries to spark riots. These are never particularly intense fears, but simply heightened threat levels just enough to nudge things up so that prudence warranted extra preparation.
In my own city there is a large asian gang problem so sometimes you hear of increased activity, again, nothing that feels targeted to me, but you never know.
>>53051804
Just around central Florida. Only moderate levels of development. Still plenty of suburbs. Admittedly, I saw about half of them near the golf course.
>>53051967
Thank you, I will open a thread on /k/, too.
>>53052035
Interesting. Thank you.
>>53051799
Guns prevent arguments mostly. Armed society is polite, etc.
While any random person might aquire a gun and go on a power trip, thats >>53051879 fueled by an unfamiliarity with guns and a bunch of video games or something
People raised with guns typically dont want to use them. When you hold a gun and think of how easy it would be to just start killing people its sobering, and it kind of pulls you into reality, and you realize how important it is for everyone to try and get along.
>>53050605
Ran into a 3 footer once in a water trap on a golf course near my house. My ball landed right near it, so we all agreed to just give me a mulligan and throw a new one out onto the fairway.
>>53052241
So owning guns makes you wish that no one had to own guns?
