We have a stream of people exiting between tables while other people are eating. Was there another means of exiting? If not should Katie Bell's shoulder the blame?
Finally it is unrealistic to believe and expect that because someone lives in The villages that they are required to be happy or friendly 24/7 to think otherwise is to ignored the limits of nature.

What may have been justified would be a comment to the exiting group that they were bothering the diners. What is not justified is to pull out a chair to block their path, then repeat the action when the chair was pushed back in. What if one of them fell over the chair?
We don't know if there was an alternate path to exit. But would there have been permanent harm in letting the ladies pass and then doing something to make that path less desirable?
No one expects everyone to be happy/friendly 24/7, but it isn't unreasonable to expect them to be civil and not confrontational.
Just my $0.02.
