Selfish & uncaring beachgoers

[MonicaQA]

I hate to hear this. As a "wannabe" SoWal resident & for now a yearly visitor-we ALWAYS pick up anything we bring to the beach & dispose of any trash we might have; we also pick up any trash we see. I think the "trashy" people either don't care or figure someone will pick it up. Very disappointing to see trash on the beach. I guess I just figure that if you're at the beach, you must love it & should, therefore, take care of it.

We went to the beach to watch fireworks on the 4th and there were several volleyball nets left up. We could not see the ropes that were holding them up and one of my daughters fell over it. It is driving me nuts to see all the crap that is left. And, why is it that the BP workers get to leave their tent shell in place all the time? Do they not have to abide by the rules - I know stupid question to have BP and rules in the same sentence.

Not sure, but I have already told them to stop parking their van on the bike path. :roll:

It has always amazed me that some visitors, and some locals alike, come to the beach (presumably )because of its beauty, but then leave their trash, cig butts, and dog $h1t in the sand and surf. Doesn't make sense...... Better that they stay home, blow/fill up an inflatable pool, dump in the day's trash, and enjoy.

How about Stinky's Valet Jerks stop parking cars on the bike path.

We tried to buy shrimp at their bait shop one evening a couple of weeks ago. The obnoxious valet guy ran over and put his hand on the van door so the driver could not exit the vehicle and told us we couldn't park in the lot, we had to go out and park on the path if we wanted to go in to the bait shop. Driver explained we were just running in to buy shrimp to fish. Valet would not take his hand off the door, so we left - extremely aggravated.

Why doesn't the PoPo do something about this? They pulled me over driving my golf cart.

Oh, he would've gotten his hand off my door. ;-)

I was very proud of my short tempered husband, who only yelled out the window at the guy. I thought for sure I would have been bailing him out of jail.

I have also been told that the PoPo is tired of dealing with it so they just ignore it now. Just what I heard, I have not verified the info, but we drive by there every night and the cars are always on the bike path.

I have asked this very same question and was told by the valet guy when I encountered this on my bike (it was almost dark) to just "ride in the road" Nice...

In another thread Stinkys said they would take care of this. Tick, tock... no action. This is done frequently and is a little insulting to say the least to think that some of us utilize the bike path during non-busy hours and that no one will notice after dark.

It is actually a code enforcement issue and I will stop there...

Thanks for allowing me to vent

Let's try something different: Hey Stinkys, stop allowing cars to be parked on the bike path please!!!

Bet I know, where this comes from!

Piss poor, up bringing!:angry: People, grow up! Your mama's not coming, behind you!

I have a feeling that the people who are leaving their trash and crap on the beach don't log on to SoWal.
