Except i read the other forbidden other online news source.

Not a word here about a 75 year old punching n 85 year old in the jaw at Glenview CC becuse he thought he hit his lexus.

Poor 85 yer old is dead from a brain bleed.

You wont find these stories in the Sun. No one talks about the violence here.

Lets all drink the kool aid
So, the truth is, you know how to get your "other" news here in TV. The incident mentioned, while tragic, is not surprising. Further, it is certainly not common.

The fact the story did not appear in the Sun is also not surprising. The publisher of the Sun is free (free press) to print or not print that story. The "other" paper relishes in offering up stories about anything negative about TV, especially crime. Most of the crime stories they run wouldn't even get a passing glance in a newspaper in (pick any big city). Every newspaper has editorial/publisher bias.

The incident does not change my perception of safety in The Villages one little bit. Of all the places I have lived, TV is, by far, the safest and most crime free.
