His response was, "Some people should be on a leash." The he turned around and yelled, "Mother Fuc**r" at me.

I was quite annoyed at the entitled attitude and upset at the language he felt entitled to use.

What would you have done? What should I have done?

I'm very tired of individuals that believe that it's fine to have their dog off leash in public areas. Every part of The Villages is in a county with leash laws.
I don't know about other folks, but I have been accosted by several entitled jerks in the villages while minding my own business, (not worth mentioning here). So, after 2 or 3 times I became tired of the abuse, and so, a standard answer of mine would have been "You forgot to take you medicine again, didn't you"! If that answer esculates the situation, so be it. We all have our limits, and I have reched mine with these entitled jerks. Remember, YOU are in the right.
