declaring that people did not think with their brains is a most demeaning statement in my book of judgements. i am sorry to see you post such a statement.
i do believe that the actions of villagers and non-villagers was sufficient, for all who watched and listened, to let them know that we are not a group who will lie back and take it and wait for something to happen - but that villagers can be motivated when they deem it necessary to take action.
and, to me, that attitude is not one that makes them a laughng stock..nor is it an attitude by which we should be embarrassed.

njbchbum: it truly does cause me discomfort to believe that anyone would believe I harbor anything but good will toward my fellow men. However, when people make a spectacle of themselves by screaming "take down that Berlin Wall, well I believe those actions speak for themselves as being emotional and not cerebral. Because of their histrionics The Villages received bad publicity locally and nationally. Because I am in the minority on this issue doesn't mean I am wrong.
