It is fair to say that I do not believe any private citizen needs to carry a gun while in The Villages.
The only incidents I remember in the past 3 years (since I lived here) involving guns in The Villages were two times that citizens flashed their concealed weapons in an aggressive manner at other people. Both of these resulted in the person being arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon. Both had permits to carry a concealed weapon. The one other time was a domestic dispute where the wife shot her husband and created a several hour standoff with the police.
But, this thread is not about reasons to carry or not to carry. It is a person's right to own guns and to carry them if they have a permit.
