That is fine with me. That makes sense. There is a lot of theft these days of both equipment and supplies.

Someone who most of us respect is apparently upset because his drone pictures are very interesting and not at all in any way doing anything wrong.

I still agree with The Villages. They have a right to protect areas that could be harmed and that is a cost spread to everyone eventually.
To the best of my knowledge "The Villages" is not a charitable organization but a business, the bottom line is always the bottom line. One cardinal rule of any business is Lower cost,, Not price , they have right to protect them selves, and will do so to protect those costs and profits . From what little I know of recording of conversations and video laws in Florida it seems to me that it is some what restrictive, I would like to hear from someone who went shopping for a new car and tried to record the discussion with the sales person, LOL as you would need approval of all parties
