More Hypocrisy from Hollywood Lefties

Kenneth R. Weiss

Public beach remains a private playground
So close, yet out of reach

The vacant beach at right is county-owned but remains largely inaccessible to the public
Wealthy neighbors have fought for decades to thwart access to the county-owned El Sol Beach in Malibu.

El Sol County Beach doesn’t show up on maps of Malibu. Its bluff-top access way remains locked away behind a rusted chain-link and barbed-wire fence plastered with no-trespassing signs. The sandy beach below is effectively walled off by private property and rocky points of land at either end.

As a result, a public strip of beach serves mostly as a private enclave for adjacent property owners, including Michael Eisner, former chief executive of Walt Disney Co., and Gregory J. Bonann, co-creator of the “Baywatch” television series.

[...]

The sandy cove of El Sol, meanwhile, remains accessible only to immediate neighbors and intrepid beach walkers willing to make the 20-minute trek at low tide, scrambling between algae-slick rocks and onrushing waves.

“It’s one of the last little secret spots,” Bonann said.

Do as I say, not as I do.
At least a bit of truth appears in the LAT every so often.

I emailed the author of the piece:

If parking is such a great concern, maybe the county could condemn the neighboring houses under eminent domain and build a bigger parking lot?



For any voter trying to choose between the two candidates for commander in chief, there is no better test than this: When American strategy in a critical theater was up for grabs, John McCain proposed a highly unpopular and risky path, which he accurately predicted could lead to success. Barack Obama proposed a popular and politically safe route that would have led to an unnecessary and debilitating American defeat at the hands of al Qaeda.

Proof: Yeah, that’ll happen!  Of course, the real scandal here is that this has been going on for thirty years!  I’m sure the same people haven’t been living in that area for all that time, so it’s institutional.
