We are supposed to be ‘Florida’s Friendliest Hometown’

I continue to read multiple letters that only ignite political division throughout The Villages. I understand everyone has a right to their own opinion! That being said, can’t that be communicated in a respectful way on this platform? The name-calling and complete disrespect for others who don’t belong to one party or another are out of control. One individual here, who seems to get his letters posted regularly, calls fellow Villagers traitors and questions their intelligence. Also, using terms like “filthy pig” is, to me (my opinion, of course), completely unnecessary. I don’t even have to say his name because I’m betting if this gets posted, anyone who reads this will know; he’s not the only one, but he sure seems to get and enjoy the spotlight. All I’m asking for is some type of standard for these letters getting posted and for people to show respect to their fellow Villagers! I am not trying to stop anyone from stating his or her opinion, but please, editor, use better judgment by only posting letters that convey these opinions in a respectful way. We are supposed to be “Florida’s Friendliest Hometown,” so how about maybe starting there and creating a better, more respectful forum for opinions to be shared. Again, some of my fellow Villagers might not agree with my post and maybe some will, but I feel I’ve stated my opinion respectfully and stand by my words.
