Just read about a 41 year old assaulting a grandfather in The Villages who was protecting is granddaughter at a pool. It happens far to often that an underage resident is the cause of trouble and criminal activity.

I hope they throw the book at this jerk. I don't want him talking to my grandkids.

There is the problem and why we have more and more people that act like this guy. We have the right to go to the pool or wherever and feel safe. This person doesn't have the right to remove our freedom and his behavior should not be talorated. With your thinking if I want the pool to myself all I have to do is be an ass so people have to leave. If I decided to have a pool party an I invite all my ass friends. We can just run everyone off after all it is my right to do whatever I want.

This underage 41 guy may have a right to live here but he can't get a resident ID and doesn't have rights to be at the pool.

Again all the troubles have been underage residents. It happens all the time.

This whole article started off about under age residents being the cause of trouble in the village because this 41 year old spoke to some young girl and her friends. It caused an up roar. Granted he should of been minding his on business & not approached the girls. If he was 62, it would be a dirty old man. The crime I see committed around here is from the local community. I do see petty stuff from the Villagers and they are from Senior residents. So before you start pointing fingers, get your facts right.

Going back to how this post started it isn't about age. It is all about the person's personality and his character. Don't try to make it about people under the age of 55. Or what age you feel is inappropriate to live here. Everyone is here for The same reason to enjoy the lifestyle.

Sad to think this is happening in our community

Just another jerk....sadly they come in all ages!!

I hope he enjoys his time in jail!

Isn't it a felony, to assault a senior citizen?

[TheVillageChicken]

The guy has every right to live here. He even has the right to be an a55hole. He doesn't have the right to hit on nine year old girls or to punch grandpa. He just completed three years probation for assault in May of last year. Hopefully, the impotent justice system will find him a small room and a bunk this time.

Sounds like he likes to get in your face type of person. Hope he didn't sucker punch the older man. We have to protect the children from this type of perv.

Hope you are referring to the 41 year old as the root of the problem.

No he's entitled to his space in the pool & he's entitled to talk to offend anyone who is in his space--its their obligation to move-if they don't want to make his acquaintance

Young children are not mature or street smart enough to "move from his space". Guys like this try and fool the kids into a false sense of security. Possibly you never had kids or grandkids to protect, but if this happened to me it would be my "obligation" to remove this scumbag from their space.

I could not agree more. My question is why didn't more 65+ pool people come to this gentleman's assistance? We may be 65+ but we could be formidable in numbers. Stick together in these situations. Don't ever let this happen again.
