You seem to be assuming many are against the lighting of the Menorah or that we are against him being there

Re-read the posts .. that is not what's being posted

I myself have no problem with the lighting and have stated so in an earlier post

Folks (including myself) have a problem at the double standards and actions from this Mayor

Not many, some. I'd disagree on the double standard, at least if you're contending it's in "favor" of Chanukah though. See post 73. Merry Christmas, Christmas Tree and Creche, all displayed on public property, with the Mayors support, at least this year. I've no problem with that. The display of a Menorah is banned, because the city doesn't want to include other religions. I've seen no indication that anyone want's a Menorah there, and personally I think the display is silly in that context. But if there's a double standard there it's not anti-Christian.
