I will say the Rec Dept. has made some goofy decisions regarding the usage of the polo facility. For example, walkers cannot use the exterior paths after 12 noon. If one would observe the activities in the afternoon, you would seldom see anything happening.

My way of getting back at people that felt like they had to video me as a Law Enforcement Officer :-).
There's nothing illegal about either one of those actions, and a number of offenders on both sides of that camera.

I agree with taking the pics of offenders. You brought up the videotaping of LOE, KC. I also agree with the courts who have sided with those who have been arrested for videotaping police, calling it a constitutionally protected right.

"Slowly but surely the courts are recognizing that recording on-duty police is a protected First Amendment activity. But in the meantime, police around the country continue to intimidate and arrest citizens for doing just that. So if you're an aspiring cop watcher you must be uniquely prepared to deal with hostile cops." (Quoted from Gizmodo.)

Your comment just made the same old comments seem funny!

I agree most pet owner's do the right thing.

Most people like to take their dog for a walk and get some exercise at the same time.
And most pet owners are responsible and respectful.
But there are always a few "bad apples".

I agree there aren't enough dog parks in TV.
There is only one small dog park in Bonita on a hill to serve the huge dog population between CR 466 and 466A.
I'm not saying it's right, and I don't personally do it ....
But the absence of dog parks is why most people walk their dogs at the postal stations.
We pay to take our two dogs daily to a private dog park for off leash playtime.
But not everyone wants to spend their time getting in a car and driving their dog to a private dog park which is not golf cart accessible.
The Villages provides tennis courts and baseball diamonds and pickleball courts and many golf courses.
Dog parks have been overlooked for this city that calls itself pet friendly.

I walk our dogs up to a local cul-de-sac and they do their thing in the center island, but then I pick it up! No one wants to see dog poop on private OR public property. The owners that don't pick up after their dogs have the same mentality as the smokers that leave their butts on the ground!

I have seen more cigarette butts at the end of my driveway than I've ever seen dog poop left behind. I think I've seen two loads in the last three years.

But I do stay mostly on neighborhood streets and a dog park.

Have to take a bag for their butt and another bag for their other butt.

I have had cig butts and empty water bottles that end up at the end of my driveway. Such a disgrace.
