Do you feel that way about requiring a drivers license to drive a car? Or a passport to enter the country? Or an ID in order to get a voter registration card? How about an ID for the Villages itself?

You need to prove identification and qualification for all kinds of things in life. If you have no problem with any of those things, then this is just another one to add to the mix.

If you do have a problem with those things, then I believe you'll probably be happier in a socialist society where no one cares who you are - you get what you get, and you don't get what you don't get, and everyone pitches in to provide, without concern for authorization.

Both of these people are slobs littering in our community as well as any other that purposely litters. If I see you again (or any other ) I will follow you, take pictures of you and where you live, and post it on any and all social media sites I can for all to see so they will know what you are.

I live here, this is my community. Willing to bet most of us don't want any littering slobs here. So, for all that agree with me, keep an eye out and speak up about it.

For those whom are the slobs, leave. most of us don't want you here. If you want to live in a dumpy place, go there. Don't bring your bad habits here.
How do you know she threw "food wrappers" in the sewer?

Seriously? I never thought you would support voter ID.

But let's see---an unlicensed, unskilled driver can KILL someone, a terrorist with a fake passport can KILL MANY

Some pig in a golf cart who throws a candy wrapper out is quite different. You are comparing apples to oranges.

Now play this scenario out-----every golf cart has an ID tag, so WHO enforces these rules. More LEOs patrolling the MMPs? Or do you suggest other Villagers "report" violators like the complaint driven deed compliance systems---yes, we could have an army of trolls with clipboards monitoring for every little real, or perceived violation of just about anything. Don't use a foul word----you could be reported. Don't spit out a mouthful of water----get reported. Don't be Jewish, or Muslim, or Republican/Democrat, you may get a number tattooed on your arm, just like the unvaccinated. And God forbid you go 20.1 mph., you will get shot at dawn

Be careful what you wish for!

Must be from NYC. They throw their trash in the street all the time in the city.

The litterbugs should find a roach in every meal they eat.

If all golf carts were registered, and had identification, it would be easy to determine who was violating rules, speeding, littering, and many other issues.

Cars are registered vehicles. What must you think of that? A golf cart moves at (in many cases) upwards of 20-25mph and can and has killed. If it hits you or another golf cart as happened to me, there is no way to identify or prove who it was when they take off even if the mall has a video. I know who hit my cart but they deny it and since I can't prove it it cost me big bucks. Yes officer, it was a blue Yamamama with some old guy in it. Comparing vaccine tatoos which is absurd and licensing a moving vehicle which can kill are not comparable.

We all tend to notice the bad. Truth, most people do not do that. It does not take many to mess things up for the rest.

The Villages are clean not because only clean, upstanding people live here but because we pay people to pick up after the pigs among us.

Speak up about it? We are so lucky that posters are themselves perfect-or think they are.

I was behind her in my golf cart. Called her out on it while they were driving away. They BOTH know for Shure it was seen . (not a quiet one obviously). If you read the post, it says so.

Not sure how it evolved to this. We do have choices. Most all of them exist somewhere and we can see how they work. Remember a few years a go an American Student publicly whipped for STEALING a political poster? You can bet they do not have many people stealing. Do we want that?

Our country, our history is like a pendulum it swings one way and then the other. My view, the pendulum recently is swinging farther to each side. Right now far left.
I a centrist, a realist, have no place on either swing.

For most of us, we write we think we are correct any anyone who does not agree with us
well they are deplorable. Many TO MANY, parrot what they are and claim they thunk it all by themselves.

Crime? Over history man has invented some interesting devices for a slow painful, torturous punishment, yet we still have crime.

Crime? For most of us if, I do it it is ok but if you do it, hum the rack should be brought back.

Yes, definitely speak up. This includes not picking up your dog waste. Most people are uncomfortable asking a person to clean up after themselves. It can be done in a non confrontational way. If someone I’ve asked politely, gets belligerent, I’ll put on my best manners & pickup after them, without a word. You will never know how this may impact their behavior in the future, but if it makes them think twice before acting the pig, it is all worth it. If you want to live in paradise, do your part.

Isn't any worse than the infamous "dog lovers" in The Villages who either don't pick up after their dog OR throw their poop bags down the sewer so they don't have to deal with them.

No need just carry you’re iPhone, somebody knows what you’re doing or not doing.
