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.

Two dogs off leash around Lake Minona rec. center. That's all you really need to say, with all of the traffic zooming along Buena Vista you'd have to be a complete idiot to let your dog off leash in that area, leash laws or no leash laws. The dogs could easily see something in the median or other side of BV and run into traffic.
Add in his rather odd response and there is just too much idiot there to deal with. I'm with the contingent that says....forget about this as fast as possible, it's just not worth your time.
Having said that....I just read thru 5 pages on this so I probably should take my owner advice
