However, I do and will stand up for my rights.

However, this is a practice that has been long tolerated by The Villages management. So, to that point, your comments certainly seems confrontational to me...especially when you follow it by "I do and will stand up for my rights". That sounds like High School bravado stuff and, IMHO, it has no place here in TV. Maybe you should reconsider where to spend your month or two.

BTW, you won't catch me at Publix in the speedy checkout line counting the number of items the person in front of me has....life is too short!
Why the hostility toward Bestmickey? All she said is that if someone who is not present saved a row of seats, she would exercise her right to sit in the empty space. What's High School bravado about that?

Now, if she had said she would beat the crap out of the offender, that would be High School bravado.
