As to someone stating a sarcastic comment about the "friendliest town in America" I say, as compared to what town? It may still be a valid statement if you compare the population of this community to towns across America. Just saying.
By the way, perhaps whomever(?) assaulted Eddie saved him from his fanatical progression toward stepping over the legal line in his insinuations of aggression toward our President. "Hang him" comes real close to a threatening posture. Perhaps, the Secret Service should investigate this matter and keep an eye on his to prevent future injury?
Yes, that's me being facetious.

I agree - the assailant should be prosecuted. My only question is who was the assailant? I've heard a lot of speculation. Actually the first post should have started with "Allegedly" but I guess rush-to-judgement is the order of the day. I am, however, going to test your theory. Tonight I'm going to go down to metro Atlanta wearing my MAGA hat and Blue Lives Matter t-shirt. I'll let you know tomorrow how it all works out. I'm sure I'll get lots of complements.

We need the owners to step up. They have rules here that limits political signs in people’s yards. All we have to do is extend that limit to everywhere in the villages. To get around these rules people will put political signs in their golf carts and park them at the end of their driveway. Eliminate all signage, everywhere. I want my friendly hometown back where no one knew or cared how or who you voted for. Our current political environment is dividing our country, not making it stronger. This is exactly what our current adversaries want. A weaker America makes us a target to outside influences.

I think you misread the persons statement. Basically, what was said is: I may not agree with what you said, but I will fight to the death for your right to say it.

Real? Yes, we, the whole US of A are becoming BizzarroLand. Down is Up. We are expected to hate the media and love Russia and Saudi Arabia. We are expected to go to work without PPEs. Hospitals are getting full in some parts of the country." Love thy neighbor" has been replaced with "greed is good". Suspect your neighbor of being one of "those dreaded others". Be selfish is the creed of the day. We are close to a depression economically and with ACTUAL unemployment around 20%, no wonder some people with opposite opinions clash. The fabric of society is torn and will stay that way until a vaccine or prevention for CV is found!

It has been proven that some people will put up signs and allow people to think they are vandalized or a victim of a terrorist group by putting the hated Swastica on their own doors and sidewalks. Some people even hire people to appear to beat them up. This happened to a very well known Television personality in Chicago. Hate is a very strong emotion. We cannot always trust what people say, sadly. Even those who post a lot on TOTV, like me.

What the hell is happening to my country?

Where is a hospital near full. Quite the contrary. They’re hemorrhaging (see how I did that :icon_wink:) money because they’re so empty and not allowed other procedures.
