Man arrested for assault in CG

Indian Acres is a well known seasonal campground around this area, most of all it is a PRIVATE campground. All of the sites are deeded and they are zoned for seasonal use only (cannot establish a residence there.)

Now they have a LOT of deeded lots, but since those around your site are the same people you would probably let your gaurd down over time even if you normal supervised your children in other campgrounds. I notice in many campgrounds that the kids that see the least supervision seem to be be with the seasonal RV sites, the rest I reserve comment on since I was one the kids that by 8 and 10 years old did not require supervision 24x7x365.

Guess you don't know anything about the "stand your ground" laws Escargot?:)

Just that Florida peeps seem to use that law as an excuse frequently.

Frequently? I didn't know that, guess I have some reading to do. I don't have a lot of tolerance for the gun control crowd and even less for the people who misuse them. It reflects badly on the great majority of gun owners who don't.

x2. But I think saying "stand your ground" is just a bumper sticker phrase now for people that want to seem like they know all about the law.

Wrong in so many ways but I won't hijack this thread to educate you. Be careful watching to many talking heads on television will cause a significant loss of brain cells.

I may be one of those over-protective parents...My kids are always within eye-view, and if they go to any public restroom, my wife goes with the girls, and I go with the boys...Always....Our oldest is 10.

So glad that you are doing the right thing by going with your children to the toilet.
So many parents just let their children go almost totally unsupervised within a campground. This should not be! Bad things can and do happen in all campgrounds.
My family and I have been camping in public and private campgrounds for more than 45 years, and I have seen unsupervised children PLAYING in the toilet buildings at almost ALL these campgrounds. The only exception is a park where the toilet buildings required an access code to enter and the children were too young to work the lock. WHY do children want to play in the toilets??
Parents should always keep close contact with their children and KNOW where they are, AND when going into a public toilet room directly supervise them because a toilet is a place where bad things can happen. SAFETY FIRST!!!

This is Why I carry! Like a post before my kids are always close by and never go to public bathrooms with out my wife or I with them. We bought land next to a lake in central Nebraska just to get our kids out of the camp grounds. The bad part is we live 200 miles from there and 5 miles from one of the most popular lake in the eastern part of the state. Just Google Branched oak News Nebraska and enjoy some light reading.

And you would now be in the jail cell instead of that cretin. As for not staying in a campground, to me that is just irrational fear. At any given time, there are probably millions of people in RV parks and Campgrounds and incidents like this are uncommon enough to merit a thread on this forum. There are surely 10 million uneventful camping nights for each experience like this. You and your child are probably much more likely to get hit by a falling tree then be sexually attacked at a campground bathroom. Of course you should always try and be aware of your surroundings, but packing a gun to go to the toilet is over the top.
