To my knowledge, the only home invasion that ever happened in The Villages was several years ago when a 19 year old was living at home and got mixed up with some drug dealers in Ocala. It was a drug deal gone bad and was not a random crime.
I actually feel pity for you and the fear you live in constantly. Your post tells me why you have a gun in your home but did not address my question of why is it necessary to carry a concealed weapon while in The Villages. Why do you feel that you have to be armed while out on a daily basis in The Villages? There has been no violent person on person crime on the streets that I know about. You certainly would not pull your gun on someone taking your golf bag from your cart.

Buggyone, Please no not pity me, understand me. I do not live in fear because I know I can protect myself and those I love. I go to my locked door armed as I carry with an ankle holster. You will never see it, don't worry, but if needed it is at the ready. As for carrying in TV, the squares are open to the public. That should answer your question. If a couple of loons want to try something on the night I am coming out of a late movie with my wife, I will have protection.
PS: I'm sure that family in Connecticut never thought it could happen to them.
