They are responsible folks and I love them. You learn new stuff every day. Never had neighbors back in Ohio who had guns or who went to gun clubs. A very big bunch of people have guns here. Don't fool with old people.

I'm not new to guns since I grew up in West Virginia and the opening day of deer hunting season was an automatic excused absence at Monongah High School. I've fired a few myself as part of my ROTC training. But I'll be sure not to tick off any of the good ladies of The Villages, particularly if they have their hands on the holster at their hip.

Hope to see all of you in January. I'm coming unarmed, though.

You will do just fine. You have a sense of humor. And so far....none of us have shot each other.

I do have a bunch of fearless girlfriends with supersoakers who stand at the ready to discharge justice.

Perhaps it's none of our business, but it's human nature to want to know what is going on in our community.
It's confusing when respected posters hear different stories from reliable sources.

And it can be cold in January if you get wet, so watch it!

I agree with you 100%. And it's frustrating to go on this long with no concrete answers to what happened that Saturday night. I understand someone's right to privacy, but the severity of the story requires some conclusion.

I'm glad for it, because license holders take the responsibility seriously and wouldn't even use a phrase like 'pistol packing mama' to describe themselves.

I believe that FL also has a open carry law if you have a CWP? Can't wait to cruise the town squares with my 1911 on my hip LOL :police:

People need to stop the gossip. Just because you hear something from someone you trust does not make it a reliable source

And people would do this if we had a reputable news source that reported the news in a timely manner.

Limited open carry in Florida.

At this point, I don't even believe there is a woman, a break-in, or a village called Duval.
