I think in these very emotional times it would be best if every one backed off on events that will raise tensions. I have been in the Villages for many years and the underlying political atmosphere is not a healthy one. There are many good people in the villages who are being dragged down by events such as this. The Villages reputation has been seriously hurt, how about calming down everybody

I guess the question is, will it be o.k. for U.S. citizens to go to campaign rallies? What if Trump or Biden comes to speak at TV? Will we be harassed for going to hear them speak?
When it comes time to vote, will we feel safe doing so? Is it o.k. to have a political bumper sticker on your car or will an angry mob descend on you and scare you away from the polling place.
We need to control ourselves plain and simple. There was nothing wrong with the Trump golf cart parade. There were no offensive banners, no one was shouting ugly things UNTIL the so called "protesters" got in their faces and turned things nasty. This golf cart parade would never have made it into the news at all if that one woman had just stayed home that day.
