For those who don't receive the DS; A Leesburg woman, who is wanted in Marion County, with two small children in the car was the driver. Arrested and bond set at $27,000. So it seems the fences between Marion and Lake county are not working to keep out undesireables. (Isn't the fence analogy really silly?) Too many posters - were too quick to bash Wildwood! To me those opinions have some underlying motives.

I stopped the paper. They just piled up until recycling day and then I'd think of clever ways to tie them up or put them in a paper bag. It was one more unnecessary chore. I don't cut out coupons [aldis], watch sports or read comics. The human interest stories didn't interest me either. I was happy someone overcame some adversity but reminded adversity is just around the corner. I will say it's the best news deal in town.
I delivered the papers for a nickel apiece 50 years ago and the DS is not much more. And I'm not sure I know what a "you know what" is. At first I thought "Know it all" but changed my mind which also proves I'm not. |

yes there are NICE people in that community . Very nice people . I frequent the businesses there often . However there is a reason why such a small community has a porportinally larger and very visible police force than what one might expect . It`s NOT Mayberry ! Unfortunately there is plenty of poverty and sadly the fact is where there is plenty of poverty there is usually a higher rate of predatory types of crime . Just spend some time with any career law enforcement officer and they will support what I am saying . So when you travel into that community do you leave your car unlocked ? Do you leave your cell phone on the dash of your vehicle ? Money visible ? If "No " why not ? Could you also she an Elitist lecturing to the rest of us . Your Hobby really seems to be so based on history . :blahbla hblah: |

The Historic District also has arrests of folks that live there, assaults, drug users etc. People that judge a community by the actions of a few (Wildwood)) should then judge the historic district by the actions of a few? Every Community has those that cross the line and being fearful because of the actions of a few, IMO, shows a paranoia that is sad. Be diligent and vigilant, even in TV, but don't be judgemental of all because of a few

I too go to Wildwood and I treat it no different than I treat The Villages, Ocala, Leesburg, etc. I always lock my car, don't leave anything of value in view. I am not an elitis. I just get annoyed at posters that use those coy words to cover up what they are trying to say. "Your Hobby really seems to be so based on history" I have no idea what you are trying to say/imply with this statement.

Just passed the conclusion of a chase in Brownwood. Don't know where it started, the car being chased went through the board fences on the road leading out of the square from the 4 corners ( next to world of beer). After taking out the fence, they proceeded out to the road that runs parallel to rt 44, hitting a car and smashing into a tree in the median. The female driver apparently tried to run and got tazed. I'm not sure if the sheriffs car was involved or not. It appeared there were two younger passengers in the chase vehicle who needed medical attention. I guess it was part of the show for farmers market. Whata place!!
Here's the rub as I see it. When I read "Whata place" I thought the person was making a joke about how crazy the farmer's market show was. It even had a chase scene. For others "Whata place" was a complaint about society in general and the area in particular. Just about anything could be read two or more ways. That's the downside of social media. There is no body language, no voice inflection. How you interpret it "Whata place" reveals a lot about yourself. |
