FLORIDA SHERIFF: "The people in Polk County like guns, they have guns, I encourage them to own guns. — And if you try to break into their homes to steal, to set fires, I'm highly recommending they blow you back out of the house with their guns."

Wow, that is a shame! It has been a long while since I spent any time in Winter Haven -- it had its bad areas back then, but for the most part it was a pretty nice place to grow up.

I lived in Garden Grove and used to work at Cypress Gardens, and all the areas around there were pretty nice. Some friends lived off of Lake Elbert, also pretty nice, in that "mature" Florida neighborhood type of way. Finally, another friend lived off of Lake Howard, the side closer to Beymer UMC, and I always thought that part was quite lovely.

But again, while I have visited my friends there, I have not spent any appreciable amount of time there. It is very sad to hear of those problems.

If the tactics you describe are ever employed in my State, ‘government team members’ will be disappearing at the same rate.

Same here in York County. There’ll be a lot of deceased rioters and looters if the venture in here, especially my neighborhood.

He’s right. Lots of good old boys up that way - some antifa thug would have his brains blown out if he tried to burn one of their homes...

I know there’s a plaza there. Golds gym. I went to the Caribbean bar in the corner on bike night a couple of times

I’m the jeweler next to that bar and I’ve been here close to 30 years. That’s why my relies are delayed. I’ve been camped in my store for days. We had a credible threat to this area tonight, so several of the store owners are hanging out tonight. So far, all is calm, but I think there have been some sketchy cars scouting us out. Some of us are armed and armored. The scouts leave, probably looking for a soft target. Freegards

Hey! Nice to hear from you. I’m still around, stop by and grab a cup of coffee some time. Invite is open to any Freepers around Legoland, also.
