As long as they slowed sufficiently to ensure their path was clear then you really can't expect them to do anything else.
Just because the person wearing earphones didn't like being told he was in the wrong...

The STOP sign means STOP - it does not mean slow sufficiently. I don't believe I have seen a traffic sign in The Villages that says
"SLOW SUFFICIENTLY, PLEASE".
Next time you are on the street - not multi-modal trail - slow up at a STOP sign when you see a police officer there and go right through. Explain that you slowed sufficiently and that is good as a full stop.
