I see from your past postings you are very negative in your responses.
Maybe you should try another approach....
Just saying.....
Bogie Shooter pretty much tells it like it is.

I think that there is possibly another intellectual here in The Villages.

I am pretty sure of it.

The Daily Sun publishes crimes but does NOT add to the presentation of facts much. If you want sensationalism, read the Orlando Sentinel.

The new online paper, owned by Meta Minton, no use saying it's name because it will be xxxxd out, is pretty good at telling a bit more of the story.

Nothing important is missing really, there isn't MUCH crime here.

If you wonder why we are feeling defensive, it is just simply that many of us love this place. It is now our hometown and our friends and peers live here. We network, we feel we KNOW what goes on, we have a lot of time to devote to that. This is the place where we have chosen to come to enjoy the fruits of our labors, we like it very much and are very satisfied with it. Many times people from densely populated areas carry with them the same level of preparedness against crime that they badly needed in their old lives. NO where is completely safe, but it is safer here than in Chicago, or in any large city populated with a lot of people on drugs and who belong to gangs..
