Members of the Jewish faith hold a rally against anti-Semitism in Palm Beach County.

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida – One week after the swastika was projected onto the AT&T building in downtown West Palm Beach.residents and representatives of the Jewish faith gathered in one place to express solidarity against anti-Semitism.

“There is no place for hate in Palm Beach County,” Palm Beach County Mayor Gregg Weiss said at an event Saturday night. “We’re going to make sure we stand up to those (who) want to come into our community and spread their hate messages.”

Weiss said one in eight people in Palm Beach County is Jewish, and yet anti-Semitism appears to be on the rise.

“I can’t tell you how much my heart hurts right now — the anger I feel, the anger we share, to condemn what has been done in our community,” he said.

Also passionately spoke out against the acts of hate on Saturday night, Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg.

“Our community is better than this. Our community is about tolerance. It’s about acceptance. It’s about love. It’s not about hate,” Aronberg said. “It frustrates me as a public prosecutor that sometimes the laws are not adequate to deal with situations like this.”

Weiss told WPTV that he and other leaders plan to hold a roundtable on Tuesday to discuss creating laws to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
