'Boots on the Ground' line dance sponsor blames Flagler sheriff for reversal
"The organizer of the Boots on the Ground Line Dance Competition that was abruptly canceled July 25 at the Flagler County Fairgrounds is blaming Sheriff Rick Staly for getting his permit revoked.

Organizer Troy Reddin said after securing both the permit and the keys to the fairgrounds, Staly looked into his background and used his past as a rapper to profile him as a violent person and convince the county to cancel the event.

"In 2018-2019 I was a rapper and produced rap videos and drew large crowds of up to 50,000 people," said Reddin, who lives in Flagler County. "He said my events had shootings and drug use and he put that in a letter to Flagler County officials to have my permit revoked." "

Oh no! He was previously a rapper? And he's black?

"Reddin: 'I did everything by the book'​

Reddin, now a concrete construction businessman, said he applied for the permit about two months ago.

"They said I needed insurance for today's event, and I got the insurance," Reddin said in an interview with The News-Journal. "They said I needed to hire three deputies for security; I did that. I got a liquor permit, and they approved it, and the sheriff's office had to provide three additional deputies in reference to the liquor permit," Reddin said."

Good thing he wasn't brown. He'd be in Alligator Alcatraz if he was.

""I did everything by the book," Reddin said. "They asked for all the public precaution because it's Black culture," he believes, "and I did all of it.""

""All I was trying to do was something good," Reddin said. "I am a father of two teens, and the event planned had nothing to do with rapping.""

- As if rapping is a crime.
 
If he has a history of unsafe events then that’s the way it goes. A lot of people would be alive today if someone had raised their hand on Travis Scott.

So we can ban all public events by the far right because of Charlottesville, yes?
 
It's easier to prevent a riot than deal with one.

So, MAGA rallies? Lots of shootings and attempted insurrections at those events.

If there is a history of violence by the organizer.

I know that you'll take any cop at their word, because you're a boot-licking authoritarian, but you can't expect anyone else to do so.

Some of us aren't so subservient and weak-willed.

Black Line Dancing Event Cancelled​


Well folks, it should be obvious................................................ It's them black people..........................and black people ALWAYS riot.
 
It's Florida...if it's about white people and black people, the FL government will come down on the white side. FL is institutionalized racism.

Was it documented? Also, there is a difference in the events. The previous events were rap concerts with 50K people. This was a line dancing event slated for 500 people. Pretty big difference.
 
Why, that sounds like something right out of our own US Constitution.
 
Just watched the video. Shameless rip off of other videos.
Music is ok.

Sheriff is an idiot unless he has a reasonable concern of unlawful activity that may occur.
