Therefore a CDD cannot do anything to restrict speech, and therefore lacks legal authority to take any enforcement actions. The government, and all it far reaching agencies and related organizations, are bound by Reed. Opinions against that are simply wrong.

The lesson here folks, is don't believe everything you read on the Internet. Do your own research, without an agenda, and find the truth.
Everyone who's bought a home in The Villages, has Deed Restrictions and Covenants they signed and agreed to. We all made an agreement with our Seller, who made a contract with the Developer. We're bound by.that contract, unless and until the State of Florida changes their statutes or some court issues a contrary opinion.
The truth be told, the vast majority of Villagers bought in TV, for just those reasons. We liked what it was like when we shopped and most of us would prefer it stays exactly as it was, the day we bought. Those who believe we shouldn't have rules and restrictions, shouldn't have bought here and should perhaps move somewhere else.
