It's not like this is an obscenity charge against morals which supposed to be a local matter. My suspicion is that someone in Ocala may not like it because of the political message because they don't agree with it.

Yes, obviously, advertising is speech and all speech (at least in theory) should be protected within reason. Reason not being a standard unit of measure, regulation will exist to regulate it.
I think you're correct when you guess that someone bristled and now Mr. Greenberg finds himself afoul of an attempt at reasonable regulation.
We should be grateful to the founders that all he has to do for now is take down his flag and petition for a redress of this grievance.
