Ignore her, but you need to be in single file. The path is dangerous and you need to be extremely careful.

Nobody should use obscene language in front of children, only scumbags do πŸ‘Ώ

We all need to remember as a wise older group of adults that it boils down:
1) to courtesy in/on public areas
2) we cannot control others, we can control ourselves
3) remember, that we all walk our own paths and some are having a more difficult time than some.

Be kind, be aware of your own actions that they are not imposing on others. From Walking the entire path widespread instead of single file, to being extremely upset of others and spreading caustic words.
Be well and just pretend that everyone you see IS family.

They are not here on vacation.

Yes you’re right. Whoever this lady was she probably was taught her new English language at home, & I’m sure she didn’t learn this foreign language in school but she probably was home schooled. At heart she’s probably a mean mouth & I’m sure she doesn’t have many friends. Sorry your grandkids had to hear this. Grandma you sound like your a very nice grandma. Just keep being the best grandma ever! God Bless you & your family & I’ll pray for this garbage mouth lady!

Come on folks. This is Florida. People get shot for throwing popcorn and even lesser reasons. Please be careful out there.

Theater shooting witnesses say popcorn flew and gun went off

navair4me 04-02-2020 08:39 AM

I understand her frustration many people in TV don't pay attention to the social distancing rules putting their friends and neighbors at risk. I made a similar comment like this on the TV Facebook page and was kicked off the site. TV needs to clean up their act rather than complain about concerned citizens.

Pedestrians have the right of way.

vintageogauge 04-02-2020 08:52 AM

The OP did not say they were on the MMP, in the area of Putt and Play where there were there are wide walking trails, more like sidewalks which is where they most likely were, the MMP runs along side the trails with grass in between. With all of the people that are walking now because of the virus, it makes more sense for those on bikes to use the MMPS on which they are allowed and stay off the walking trails, problems with pedestrians solved.

Having not witnessed this I can't comment on it other than to say that profanity is often used when people are frightened, frustrated or angry. I'm not excusing her actions. What is curious to me is your last line. " Not on vacation (visiting?)" would imply they are living with you. Really none of my business, just curious.

Some people have no class.

Why, if you had to turn around you were walking on the wrong side? My husband and I walk side by side, not single file on the right side of a walkway and would still have to turn around if someone came up behind us. All a biker has to do to say they are coming or ring their bell and we move over. No big deal. Uncalled for and stupid of the bike rider. They have no more right to be there then anyone else.
