Rough waters for California's not so public beaches
- oldmancoyote 8y agoThere is an article in the California State Constitution guaranteeing public access to the ocean. That's how old the California tradition of public access to the beach is. If they want "privacy and exclusivity" put a fence around the land they own, not the land we own.
- mullingitover 8y agoI'd vote for a ballot measure that penalizes landowners who block public access to public beaches with forfeiture of their entire property. I bet a majority of Californians would, too.
- foxyv 8y agoMy solution would be called the Vuvuzela boat. Don't want people to have access to these beaches through your land? Okay we'll just boat them in on the Vuvuzela boat. Every rider gets a free Vuvuzela. The boat is also very safety conscious and makes sure that other boats know where it is by blasting lots of airhorns... LOTS OF AIRHORNS. Usually when it is close to the beach. The boat runs 24/7 to make sure people have plenty of access to the beach. Jokes aside, just eminent domain these jerks and put in an easement. Possibly with tasteful artwork of hands flipping them off. Okay maybe not ALL jokes aside...
