He ranted on he had been here 5 years and had his house robbed several times. Yeah, right. He then went on to say this is not a gated community and just anyone can come in by pushing a gate button. Who didn't know that when they bought here - especially a retired cop? He then said he wished he had been home when someone broke in so he could have shot and killed them.

I was just thought to myself as I was walking away with my double Rum and Coke, I hope that guy moves away - FAR AWAY!
Similar thing happened to me when I first moved here. I was waiting to get into Line Dancing at Laurel Manor and this woman unloaded on me about how much she hated TV, could not wait to get away etc. etc. I had been here about two weeks and must admit it was a bit unnerving to hear her going on and on.
