Talk:Milton, Florida

Religion
While interesting to some, the individual leaders of various small churches hardly constitutes its own headline in encyclopedic form.

this page needs to be updated to show the clerk of courts decision to use bigotry to cancel all marriage ceremonies by the clerk of courts on the day judge hinkle vacated the florida gay marriage ban. it is the first time milton and santa rosa county have been part of a national news story since the 1962 hurricane, and therefore it demands accounting...

Wikipedia is probably not the place to be sending condolences. It is an ENCYCLOPEDIC, FACT-BASED ENTRY SYSTEM.

corrupt police force
I heard that the police force here is really corrupt. Staged suicides, police accused of rapes in public, witnesses to police corruption murdered.

This entry doesnt cover any of that, perhaps it should —Preceding unsigned comment added by Petrarch1603 (talk • contribs) 23:24, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Origin of name
As of 2019, the most profound literary allusions of which folks in Milton are capable refer to comic books. I believe it is more likely that an armadillo could play Bach’s Cello Suite No. 1 than that the town was named after John Milton. Unless the author of this article has incontrovertible documentary proof, I think the absurd contention that the town is named after the poet should be removed. Most folks around the town understand it was named after the lumber yard (Mill Town).98.162.136.248 (talk) 06:14, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
