I must say that it is concerning that adult opinions, however rude, would be censored in this community....and that is the issue. That your village isn't allowed to get riled up, rude, loud, etc, especially since it is done in print, and no one is compelled to read it. It certainly seems to be a very judgmental call on the part on one group of adults against another - Pretty insulting to the participants of the group. I don't know if I want to live in a place that controls thought expression.  |
We post on this forum that is owned by an individual who I believe is younger and does not live on site and he maintains it as a business and the source of revenue are the advertisers on here. He can make any decision he wants about the perimeters of conduct. It must be very difficult to do with our prolific postings ( I am the biggest culprit).
It has NOTHING to do with The Villages or The Villages form of government that does have deed restrictions like most upscale communities across this country so that you don't see cars up on blocks, campers parked in driveways, lawn art in yards, outbuildings and fences. These are choices you must make if you move here, whether or not you want deed restrictions, and you need to know that a CDD form of government is not changed by votes. It is what it is.
We are all old and older or young and younger depending if you look at the exterior packaging or the inwardly workings of the heart. NOONE can squelch us. We are old enough to be danged sure we are right, stubborn, opinionated and mouthy. Some of us have kept the manners our mother's taught us and others I suspect did not have a mother.
It is so great here that I don't know how anyone who is old enough can keep from moving here. We just love it. Come on down.
