How much could you really see?
Peeing in the parking lot is certainly unpleasant, but a major crime???
Is it really any worse than spitting, smoking, or chewing with your mouth open?
If this is all we have to worry about, we should be counting our blessings.

Wow! Really???? Was it you?

Here is a person violating public decency and mocking public law and some make fun of the situation or just justify it as a "so what". This is so outrages that it doesn't deserve a response.

Good points, never equated public urination with chewing food with your mouth open, but I guess in some levels or our society it's very similar.

I missed the part where I said it's a "major crime" but then again neither is keying a car and look where that's gone.

Glad none of the Villages summer campers where near the scene.


Can Public Urination Be a 'Sex Offense'? - FindLaw Blotter

If this person was intoxicated, the scarey thing is he got in his vehicle and drove off, as the OP has posted.

These days I have my cell phone with me most of the time and take photos. Why not photograph someone behaving like this? Send the photo to the Daily Sun to publish (lol).

Wonder what he did with his cig butt?

I think next to a kind heart, a sense of humor is next in how I pick people I like to chill with.

While my wife was looking around in Coldwater Creek tonight, I got into my car and circled the block a few times waiting for her. I was in a convertible so I had a wide open view of what was going on around me.

As I drove south on the short street adjacent to the Villages bus stop, between Cody's and TGI Fridays, I looked to my right and saw a Villager exposing himself and urinating in the parking lot across from the bus depot. It was about 7:30PM and it was still very bright outside. He was doing this next to his golf cart while smoking a cigarette. I stopped my car and yelled at him to no avail. He continued on for a couple of minutes and then merely zipped up and drove off.

He either didn't here me yelling, or didn't care. He appeared to be drunk to
say the least.

Having not been to the square in a while, I sure hope this behavior is rare but it's not something that hasn't been mentioned on this site before.

Again, sorry for the post, but this jerk and his illegal behavior got to me. Sorry I didn't have my cell phone with me or I would have called the
police.

How did he appear drunk? I'm not excusing him, but maybe he had a medical condition and knew he would not make it to the restroom even though it was only a block away. Might have been a long ride home with wet pants.

I wish to apologize to Bimmertl, the OP. Re-reading my prior post I can see that the tone was very demeaning. And this is entirely unnecessary.
I spent my life in the medical profession and have seen more naked bodies than I care to remember. Thus I do not consider any parts of the human body to be embarrassing or offensive.
In addition I think there is quite a difference between public urination and indecent exposure. Doesn't the act of indecent exposure usually involve some type of sexual arousal? Is it fair that a person arrested for urinating in public is considered to have committed a sex crime and may be required to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life?
At any rate there is too much belittling of other posters on this forum and I am sorry I was a participant.

You see no problem with urinating in public??? So our sidewalks, trees and bushes should be used a porta potties??? And garbage can be thrown on the sides of the roadway and in yards instead of trash bins? Where is your sense of pride in where you live? Urinating in Public is unacceptable. It is not something that is a joke or taken lightly. If we all take your attitude that its no big deal, then people will think that its ok to urinate in public. In fact.....it is not.

[ilovetv]

Well this ought to shut the door on the other thread about "outsiders"!

With PeeMan driving a golf cart it's safe to assume he is "one of us"!!

And he should not have been driving if drunk. I'd have followed him home or wherever and would stop with him in sight, to signal to other drivers I needed a cell phone call to be made.

Hind sight is always 20/20....

Seen this happen more than once at Spanish Springs. Next to Margarita Republic there is a Beer shed and large evergreen bush. There are a few folks that use the bush as a toilet. Pretty disgusting if you ask me.
And yes, we did confront the dude one time. He laughed, swore at us and continued his thing. Nope didn't contact the police.

[Halibut]

I guess ... if I was in Los Angeles or Dallas or any other urban area and saw a guy urinating in a public park or doorway, I wouldn't follow him or take a picture or call the police. So I wouldn't do that in TV, either.

Yes, it's illegal but on the scale of crimes not something I'd consider to be personally worth pursuing. I'd simply assume the guy was drunk and would be ashamed of himself the next day, but people have posted about golfers relieving themselves on the course and I gotta figure they're (mostly) sober.

But honestly, my reaction to public urination is more along the lines of shaking my head, "What is wrong with people? Gawd!" So I have to say zonerboy and I are kind of on the same page with that.

Well it's only been 150 years or so since everyone urinated in public or at least outside. I wouldn't call this case public per se, outside yes but to me public would have been in the middle of the square or walking down the side walk. I would guess most people at some point in their lives have disposed of urine somewhere besides a "bathroom". Maybe the poor guy has some sore of bladder issue or infection that just sprung up. What is the saying of the great forgiver "let him with out sin cast the first stone"

I'd be careful with pics.....

Send to police but don't post ... you'd probably get sued!
