One must never forget, that even here in America, we are living amongst the good graces of our gentile hosts and must do whatever we can to appease them and be thankful for the hospitality.

What happened when Yidden threatened to sue the Seattle Airport to force it to put up a Menorah on Chanukah, is a prime example of the type of aggresive behavious a Jew must avoid, thus causing a massive Chillul Hashem.

(This is a general point, and not necessarily applicable to the particular facts related to the Ft. Lauderdale situation, which may involve facts unstated here.)
