Default Feel threatened in The Villages?

Yoda,
Do you honestly feel threatened when you walk around the streets and town squares in The Villages to the extent of having to carry a pistol?

The Villages has to be one of the most peaceable places in the USA.

However, when I was at the Christmas tree lighting ceremony at Lake Sumter Landing, I did see one man poke another man with his cane in order to get his attention to ask him to not stand in front of his chair (blocking the view). Would that have been enough for the "pokee" to show a pistol if he had one? No way! Would you have shown your pistol in that case? I hope not!! I just hope your personal liability insurance has a million dollar limit on it. You certainly would get your butt sued off (and you would lose) if anyone catches a glimpse of your pistol in public. It would be your word versus their word if you showed the pistol in an aggressive way - and your posts would be damaging to your case.

There is NO reason for anyone to carry a pistol in The Villages.
