There has only been one shooting in the 3 years I have been here (that I know of) and that was a domestic dispute between two ex-police officers at their home.
There have been a couple of times reported that a person with a concealed weapon permit showed their pistol in a threatening manner and got arrested for assault with a deadly weapon.
There are also places that it is not allowed to carry a concealed pistol such as in a bar or bar area of a restaurant.
As I said, this was not to ruffle feathers. If someone has a legal permit to carry, I have no problem with it - except what is the necessity while in The Villages?

The topic is the procedure and mechanics for obtaining a permit. Let's not turn this into a discussion on the need or merits of carrying or gun control regulations. Please start a new thread if you wish.
Thanks for your cooperation.
