ARMED GUARDS AGAIN? ARE WE TO BECOME DODGE CITY AT HIGH NOON?

ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT

David Israel, obviously falling deeper and deeper into that long darkness known as dementia, has now decided to try to ram through his pet committee another of his dangerous ideas. This Thursday, at 10 AM at UCO at the Officer's meeting, he is bringing up under New Business the idea to CONSTANTLY have armed PBSO deputies who are off duty and FOR HIRE at our assembly gatherings. Be at the meeting so you can add your voice to the discussion. Say NO NO NO to this dangerous idea.

This is dangerous, very dangerous. I have no idea where his head is at. First of all, exactly of what is he so afraid. Let's see. We have a 75 year old lovely and intelligent woman, a man in a scooter, a man with a cane, a man with a kidney transplant and not a fast runner, an elderly blogger and others in the same kind of categories. These are the people who frighten him? Can you just picture this - all these people running? no, walking, slowly, vey slowly, and don't forget the lift for the scooter - up to the stage to beat David Israel up? It is ludicrous!
     The idea of armed guards as a constant is frighteneing. First of all, we do not live in a police state as much as David Israel would like to think so. He is not Capo, nor Fuhrer, nor Stalin, nor tinpot dictator of a third world country. And while the PBSO deputies are trained, how often do we read about a deputy involved shooting, where a gun was erroneously used during an incident. Do we want to be the headlines of a Palm Beach Post story or on a national TV station? Do we want someone to be shot and why, because David Israel is paranoid and cannot deal with any opposition to his own ideas or thoughts?
     And what is the opposition supposed to do when faced with the concept of armed guards at the meeting, placed there to intimidate them? Are they, too, to hire off duty PBSO deputies or private service security people? Will we have these armed guards in a face off a la the frontier? Are those of us who have guns then to petition to be able to carry them all over the Village to protect ourselves from a loony UCO President with delusions of self grandeur and paranoid fantasies?
     While the images may cause one to laugh, the reality is not funny. Come and say NO. If you are not here now, send an email to ucopresident@gmail.com with your opinion. Keep our Village safe and sane. Gunfight at the CV Clubhouse is not a good movie title, nor for life.
