Both parties are an embarrassment to those of us who are trying to live a simple stress free life.

I could not believe the language from one woman’s mouth. Was that on TV too? I missed the news but googled it.

With all the national exposure, hopefully we in TV will not see Antifa or BLM coming here to cause REAL trouble like we've recently seen across the country.

[lwmilo]

I see , shouting,black power ,BLM is ok with you.

The real news was the female with the foul mouth agitating everyone. I hope she is not a Villager, but either way she needs a 8x8 with 3 square meals and a cot. Everyone needs to screen shot her picture and memorize it for future reference.

My guess the guy who shouted white power, said it out of frustration, in response to f u from the loudmouth in the black dress. His lack of self control in the midst of chaos was regrettable.

What was wrong was the way that some of the people began speaking to each other. Standing on the sidelines and hurling nasty insults at others, getting in their faces, standing in front of their golf carts to the point of actually touching their golf carts was not o.k. The nasty "White power!" remark made back was equally not o.k. It also had nothing to do with the nature of the parade - which was simply to show support for our president during a rather horrific time in our country.

Did it occur to you that a significant number of people so supportive of this president that they must wave flag, adorn their carts and parade through the squares share the ideology of the white power speaker?

I was paired up with a golfer yesterday with about half a dozen Trump 2020 stickers including “Make Liberals Cry“. He also had a NASCAR 11 sticker (Hamlin). To make conversation, I commented on Sunday’s race. He answered “The Bubba liberals have ruined the sport”.

Such is the community in which we live.

This hateful divisiveness In TV is a result of what people have seen and heard coming from the White House. How some people now see Our community can be compared to what other people ( and leaders) in the world think of our country!

I am so sick of hearing people talk to others in such a disparaging way. I have no energy for that type of nonsense and I wish that everyone could get along. TV is mostly a relaxed, peaceful place filled with retirees who are there because they want to play pickle ball, golf and make friends with others going through the same life stage. I have no room in my heart for all of this nasty controversy and I refuse to be embroiled in it.

I am with you

No matter what your politics are, it was a black eye for a wonderful community like The Villages. I got an email from a friend whose son lives in South Korea wondering what is going on in The Villages. Makes us seem like a community full of neo-nazis and white supremacists.

And I can't believe the comment by the one guy who said that it was all the fault of the media and the protesters. What planet is he from?

Anybody else get some surprising questions from friends and family that know nothing of TV?

Television news is despicable. I saw what CNN made of this, and it is clearly milking the story to cause harm. It’s like that false story that still goes around that The Villages is a hotbed of STDs because everyone runs around having sex. (Yeah, right!)

On the news, it was easy to hear a protestor at the golf cart rally calling the man in the cart a racist—simply for supporting the President! And the man replied “White power” as an ironic joke. That was clear from the way he said it. But wow, a chance to harm the opposition! Can’t let that one go, even if it is false.

Most of what the President calls “fake news” is not fake news, but this actually is.

People, let’s stop the name calling and get along. We are all Americans!

[JulieER]

He said it because he FELT it. If someone said FY to me, NONE of my retorts would be WHITE POWER.

Trailer Park for old people LOL that is so funny. Goes to show how things get started. I wish the news media was as quick when there is a showing of strength for the military. When we help the food pantries and all the other wonderful things that happens here. But no they concentrate on one individual who in no way represents us.

[eschiavo]

Yes, my family couldn’t believe this is happening in TV. Said the land of make believe and nothing negative ever happens in TV. Lol

Who care about the Morse family !!!
