This morning, at or about 6 AM, a death threat was posted against our City of St Augustine elected officials and City staff, on the St. Augustine Record's website.
Today at 4:18 PM, I requested that the St. Augustine Record help identify the poster, and report them to law enforcement authorities. No response yet.
At 4;30, I spoke to Marcia Lane, who is acting on behalf of Petere Ellis during his vacation. More than ninety minutes later, after 6 PM, the hateful death threat is still posted on the Record's website. Why?
In past years anonymous, St. Augustine Record website "Anonymice" commenters have posted death threats against activists, as have posters on plazabum.com and other hate sites.
Now that our City government officials listen to the people and we're becoming a more compassionate city, the haters have shifted their anger. Hence, they have now made death threats to our City officials.
See my letter to the Record and the offending post (below).
What do you reckon?
----------------
Dear Mr. Ellis and Ms. Fogel:
1. Would you please help me publicly identify the anonymous poster of the 6 AM death threat (quoted below) against our City of St. Augustine Commissioners and City staff?
2. This NIC appears to be a new one.
3. Please share all information available to you about the poster.
4. What lack of safeguards was responsible for the death threat's continued posting for ten (10) hours on the St. Augustine Record website? http://staugustine.com/news/local-news/2013-07-22?page=1
5. Kindly share all identifying information wih the FBI and FDLE Special Agents in Charge and with the St. Augustine Chief of Police and the St. Johns County Sheriff.
6. I have highlighted (below) the death threat, and some factual assertions by the poster that may help identify the maker of the threat.
7. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
With kndest regards, I am,
Sincerely yours,
Ed Slavin

Oh yeah, you all work for the people of St. Augustine, FL!
The people say, "You Are ALL FIRED".
How stupid can you get and live another second.
The indidviduals who even considered having Mumford and Sons come to St. Augustine without having a plan in place should all be taken out and shot in the plaza in the center of St. Augustine for all to see who the stupid individuals who are running our city.
We are in uncharted territory with the economy of our great nation and community; the City of St. Augustine council and city mangers will take $400k to spend on an event shuttle services not to mention all the problems this event has caused.
We can not believe how low people will go for political power and self promotion.
Cancel the Mumford and Sons event!
Use the people's taxes more on the local people rather then flush $400k down the toilet. Because that is what you are doing. Flushing our money down with all the other stuff that you waste our money on.
Do you have an answer to what if a major fight or fire happens during this concert event?
The lengths you will go with a band of the world when you blow off having good family faith based events in our concert venues. Totally one sided!
"Your ALL Fired!"
Cancel Mumford and Sons Event! (unquote) (End of anonymous death threat posted on It. Augustine Record website at 6 AM this morning).
In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!
