That is the same as how communities hide terrorists. Oh, since it isn't happening to ME personally and it is only a few people in the whole community then we should just ignore it.

Come on. The % of adult children living here to crime compared to the % of home owners to crime is a big #.

Is there a tax write-off that makes people overlook the negative. You know if your adult child is a screw up. You can't be blind or surprised, you made them.

6 foot 5, 300 pounds and on Xanax and living at home? Come on.

Maybe they shouldn't be allowed to live here in the lease. Maybe only 2 people should be full-time residents.

They ARE allowed to live here. We moved to a CDD not a voting metropolis. Adults living with parents aren't concealed, the other news and the local news sheds light on them when they break the law. I don't know why he is living at home. I don't think anyone is applauding this particular very upsetting situation. I wonder if people wonder why our 53 year old daughter has always lived with us?

In a CDD the deed restrictions and the rules governing them are in place and you can vote to live there or not. I think it is kind of amazing how well this CDD works.

LOL< some people are thick or just don't understand. I feel its just a post# booster because the same thing is posted over and over and only by people with 3000+ posts. Hmm... We KNOW they are allowed to live here. The problem is that they are not ALLOWED to commit a crime here.

Methinks some people have a serious problem.

What is your motivation to capture tid bits from the police blotter, choose what fits your narrative and then come to the computer and make accusations such as people wanting to "keep secrets" or comparing a reaction to "hiding terrorists"

Overlooking the negative as you refer to is more minding our business and enjoying the positive, and that if coureis dependent on being able to enjoy life.

In addition, I enjoy factual and truthful discussion, thus could you please supply the numbers and stats that led you to this...

I am big on substantiating attacks and am not at all familiar with this "big #" you are referring to.

Please show us or anyone how anyone is "ALLOWED "to commit crimes

I missed that when I bought here 18 years ago.

And...….We aren't either you and I. I am holding up my end.

Okay back to the original topic.

How do you control someone who is 6’5”, 295 lbs. on drugs?

[Marathon Man]

Here we go again. If this guy was 65YO and owned the house he was in, would anyone even be talking about it. I am convince that it is not the drugs, not the crime, but simply the resentment that anyone over the age of 18 can live here. I don't understand it myself, but whatever.

Oh, My ignore list just got one name longer.

I have a question, if a known problematic substance abuser lived next to you,
would it make you a bit more cautious?
Note: Age not considered.

IMO Of Course. Just like I wouldn't leave jewelry or medications, cash, credit card offers lying around when others are in my house.

Again my opinion

He/She takes great glee in agitating but unable to do anything but just simply say things. You cannot accuse people, places etc., without offering some substance. HE/She does not offer as opinion but as if there were facts....which we see he/she refuses to share (because there are none).

I do not like liars and this is a liar. I do not like those who accuse others of anything without offering some substance. He/she does not even try to say it is an opinion and here is why.....

Speaks of a mean spirited person who has vacuums to fill.

This is how some folks live, and glad I am on ignore.....not my first time

The Villages is a great place. Safest place I have ever lived and I have lived in probably 20 places. Well maybe not as safe as the Provo, Utah campus of Brigham Young University. And BYU was full of kids around 18-30 or so years of age along with their professors and/or other kinds of teachers.

They both have the same kind of benign leadership by a small group though. The LDS Church leaders for BYU and the developers and their contacts for the Villages.

OF COURSE......BUT LET ME ADD...

In ANY town or city in the country.

In ANY retirement Village.

The tirades are aimed at THIS community......as if THIS community was in some way at fault. If that is the case, that is sad and a decision needs to be made but coming on here hacking away at everybody and the Developer is a waste. This place has been here for a lot of years.....all that has changed from my point of view is that we have a web site that delights their fans with gossip fodder. It, whatever you do not like did not start just today

I might add, that if I felt the the community I lived in was responsible, I would simply leave. There are senior apartments that have had crime problems.......it is just a stupid exercise in being mean spirited for no good reason.

Simply because you have a forum to mouth your allegations does not make it right to do.

I have been here for 18 years....I know the good and bad.....I do not live in heaven (yet ) I was nor promised that, and I have been around enough to know what real life looks like, AS WELL as around enough to recognize a troll when I see them.

I asked for the motivation to even bring this up....no response

I asked for validation about the so called "statistics" and got nothing.

If you want to accuse somebody of something......do it with some credibility, and reason.

If your goal is to make me look unsympathetic...sorry....I have feeling but I assure you, with something that serious, bitching on TOTV is not going to get you relief. And then to insure you add little icons to be cute.....sorry...no sympathy from here

Probably. He was out on the home’s lanai, which was in complete disarray when police came. Since they don't live in a CYV, then everyone could see this. Great.

Once again you are making wild suppositions.

Please calm down, I don’t deserve your rant,
since I only put forth a simple question,
and I have not laid any blame.

Actually I think you have me confused with somebody else??

The poster in question started a thread on this same subject last week, and was pretty much shut down by most responses to his rant. He is, joyfully jumping on the wagon of a like-minded posters thread seeing as how he apparently found a comrade and some supposed validation.
