    I'm sure the sheriff guy will come on in a few weeks and tell us about a 2 year investigation on msg being added into the hotdogs which led to 48 arrests, 7 guns retrieved, 450 lives saved, and 3 more people on the run.

      @@mickeymou5e People like YOU, join HATE GROUPS,, People join these groups because they’re searching for an identity, a community, and a sense of purpose. And there’s some grievance, some underlying trauma or abuse or brokenness underneath all that.
      Could be mental illness, could be lack of employment or lack of an education. That’s why they become vulnerable to the messages and the narratives of these extremist groups. Because they are looking for somebody to blame for the problems that they have, and they’re not equipped to deal with them.

    I lived in Tampa from 2002 until 2010 how do used to go there quite often was a great hotdog. The only problem was they’re really expensive. Outside of that pretty good.
    I have to say though if you head down the street a little bit there’s a Cuban sandwich place called Rubens Cubans that are absolutely to die for.
    The street that Mel’s hotdogs on has some of the best restaurants in all of Tampa and Busch Gardens so it’s hard to say no to that area.
