The 2008 and 2012 Presidential elections notwithstanding...the feeling that this is the real America has never really left me.

You really thought so? Aw c'mon...guess now you're just bein' provocative, eh?

Interesting reporting though about the crazy white woman. Anybody have a clue what this "dispute" was all about? I've had quite a bit of experience digging through the context of interpersonal disputes...and I've rarely found that participants on both sides couldn't have done something differently either in the activities leading up to the "dispute" or during the "dispute" itself.

Being a native Floridian I am very familiar with Lake County and it's history.

The progress from public lynchings by the KKK to where we are today has been a series of steps. We can only hope that the removal of a symbol of racism from public display will be another step of progress.
