They need to be trusted to make the system work. We are thankful that they take on the demanding and dangerous work that is needed to keep safety and order. LEO: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Especially in light of recent situations, answering your question has brought on a lot of in-depth responses because things are not just all one way or the other, black or white (nothing racial intended), sweet or sour, day or night, etc. So thank you, also, for allowing people to have this discussion. There always seems to be a lot of layers once we move past the surface of any topic.

. I really did not 'ask a simple question'. Simply made a statement (post#1)
"I would sincerely hope that most of us here in The Villages feel this way too."
I guess I was very naive, not knowing how some others would respond.
I'll leave it at that.
I always say (re ToTV), I could open a Thread stating "What a beautiful day it is today in The Villages!
...and some would say "NO! there's a cloud!" "Nope I woke up with a backache" "Maybe where you are, it's raining here". "Nope, I see dog poop". "No way, my neighbor put out a gnome!". you catch my drift...grrr.
