You well may be right and I may be something bad. But it seems to me that we aren't allowed to come to a conclusion about a group of people without that label being attached to us. Racist is ugly. So is being stupid.

There is ALWAYS exceptions. But when the high season approaches our population swells. It is like tourist places everywhere.

There is a huge criminal presence in the world, just usually NOT in The Villages. I am sure everyone wants to keep it that way. I have NEVER seen a beggar here. I have never seen anyone looking out of place in a kind of suspicious way. But if I do....I know from my own past experience that there are gypsies and that is what they do. Maybe they are born and raised in Atlanta or Duluth and they are blonde and blue eyed, and they don't speak Romani, but just watch out for unusual stuff.

It is very hard sometimes to balance a caring Christian attitude and being just a little skeptical and keeping a common sense approach.
