So.. after posting the article below I emailed the two Jewish synagogues n Marion County, asking that they take a stand against the racist. I reminded them of the heroic role Jews played during Civil Rights. No response.
Now, this morning, I woke up to read:
Eight mile-long convoy of Confederate flag supporters rally in Florida
Original post:
(Raw Story, FL) Marion County board in has voted unanimously to make sure the Confederate flag continues flying atop a public site honoring deceased police officers, WKMG reports.
According to the local news outlet, members of the Marion County Board of County Commissioners voted on Tuesday to re-raise a Confederate flag over the Fallen Officers Memorial in Ocala. The site of remembrance, which commemorates officers who died while performing official law enforcement duties, sits on land paid for by taxpayers, just outside the Marion County administration building on Southeast 25th street.
The County describes itself: “Whether your visit is for pleasure or business, we encourage you to 
explore Marion County’s communities, countryside, downtown and unique outdoor recreational opportunities.
You will discover that we are a community of more than 330,000 neighbors (Ed. 13% Black) that enjoy where we live and work (Ed. Did the White Commissioners ask how the 40,000 African Americans feel abut seeing the dammed flag on THEIR land?) . From this, more than 200,000 workers comprise our regional workforce, providing a steady supply of skilled employees for a growing number of professional, manufacturing, healthcare, distribution and other industry sectors.
In addition to our excellent workforce, you will be pleased to find thousands of acres of national forest, many miles of recreational trails and waterways, beautiful horse farms and an amazing countryside that is not only unique to Florida but a one-of-a-kind environment in the Southeast.
We invite you to learn who we are and what we have to offer to you, your family and your business. Welcome to Marion County, whether it’s for a short visit or a lifetime.
Ocala/Marion County is nationally recognized for its top assets, such as affordable housing and lifestyle. Designations include:
– Fifth best place to live in America.

– America’s Top 100 Places to Live.”
Another comment form Bill by email. As you have been informed before, I regard any email I receive as my property and informed you that by sending it to me you gave up any right to claim a copyright.
I regard to your request, a tag is not a comment. It is simply a way for readers of THE Ave to find related posts. Your often heated defense of SC certainly is related.
I have also offered you the opportunity to post about your feelings about SC, you responded by sending an email that was abut the court case in Boston and therefore could not be published by me.
You are more than welcome to write abut SC, in fact I wold like to see how someone like you .. a person I assume is not a racist but chooses ot live there, has to say.
Bill’s msg.

==================
There is absolutely no reason to associate me with any such activities in Florida, and the only reasons I can think of that you added my name is to irritate and provoke and harass me, and to ensure that people reading this tripe get the feeling that I was somehow associated with this activity in Florida.
Therefore, a simple request: Please remove the tag with my name from this post.
Thank you.
Bill
