I am simply trying to warn older citizens that it is LIKELY that crime increases in the next several years here in OUR Bubble.
........Nationwide, murders are up in the last 3 years. Another problem is that the US has LOST its middle-class which can act as a socially stabilizing force to LOWER violence. Also, nationwide and in Florida Public schools have teachers quitting in DROVES - FORETELLING another removal of a stabilizing social FORCE.
.........I was just down to Rural King and the table where ammo is kept was almost empty. 10 years ago that same table would have been full. There are signs of social instability and potential crime ALL around.
......The Villages is VERY POTENTIALLY vulnerable to violence. It is just a matter of time. I say, better to have a fairly large Police presence and NEVER need them than have a small Police presence that does NOT deter crime in the 1st place.

Wow! It's sad that you have such a poor and disparaging view of our neighbors outside TV...
And if you think that TV is nothing but a "bunch of rich people", I suggest that you visit Naples, or Palm Beach, or Boca Raton...
I've found TV to be a mix of everything form retired Blue Collar workers, Teachers, Nurses, Firefighters, Cops, Nurses, Doctors, Lawyers and Indian Chiefs. With housing prices from the mid/low $200s to well over a $Million...
