"In case you did not know there are Jews who live in Irondequoit and practice their religion!!! I had hoped the people in my town are not living in the 50's. Unfortunately your response once again tells me things have not changed for some in this town and furthermore reflects on what you are!!!!!!!"
So here's the thing...
Do you know if the owner of the public tree lighting ceremony is Jewish? If he's not then why would he have a menorah lighting? Inclusion is a great thing, but for YOU to demand that they do it because you want it done then that's just.. STUPID!

There are NUMEROUS religions that are not being represented during the holidays. We don't hear them complaining because they take action and go out and start their own ceremonies. Why you ask?? Because they don't expect other's to do it for them!
If it means that much to you that you have to have a menorah lit, then you will move mountains to get it to come to be. Get a permit to hold a public gathering to light the menorah where everyone can gather and celebrate. It can be done, action just has to be taken!
BTW.. I did a little looking.. The Town of Irondequoit has a daily Menorah lighting during the holiday in the Gazebo next to a Xmas tree.
