You can keep saying the same thing over and over, it will still be wrong.

When you bought in The Villages, you bought a home with Deed Restrictions. The District was not a party to that transaction.

There is nothing inherently illegal about Deed Restrictions, provided they don't discriminate agains a protected class. Private transactions are not protected by the 1st Amendment, nor are "signs" protected by the 1st Amendment. If signs were protected by the 1st Amendment, cities and towns wouldn't be able to adopt sign regulations. The 1st Amendment is the Right of Free Speech ... it is not "The Right to Post and/or Carry Signs".

You should read the 1st amendment there are 5 elements to it….

Of course, if I want to find something about the Villages I should search on "three counties" or "57 square miles." But that's okay... you apparently haven't notice yet that the link has been provided in at least four posts so far.

Well what are your thoughts about the video?

I'm sorry my friend, but you obviously don't understand law nor the 1st Amendment.

There are (5) RIGHTS protected by the 1st amendment. None of those "rights" include an unlimited "right to post signage". nor is there anything in the 1st Amendment which prohibits Deed Restrictions.

...And, it's surprising that the other entity (which shall remain nameless) but which report "all things bad" against The Villages and Villagers, such as drunk driving incidents and entitled illegal parking, didn't RUN with that story, if there was a perceived injustice.

In fact, they would've been on that incident like white on rice, so it was probably a justified police action.

The OP is charged, or at least challenged with filling in the details which were missing or deliberately left out.

Basically, I'd be curious as to where this occurred, which would end the querries.

I am not a lawyer and am not going to say what is constitutional or not. I grew up where the police to keep law and order dispersed people and crowds all the time especially at 2am on fridays and saturdays at " establishments" to keep people out of trouble. They broke up potential drag races etc. Sometimes the public good requires the " blind eye". I've seen many a cop let people off. Constitutional rights are violated every day. Get over it. It's not the holy grail. It's the goal. What is one supposed to do? Walk around with an attorney at your shoulder for the rest of your life claiming foul. Live and let live life is not perfect.

How can a person be trespassed from the villages for holding a god bless the homeless vets sign. I thought the roads were public and sidewalks are public…Iknow the squares are private property but open to the public.

No one thanked you for your service? 😁
