A SUP’er getting Malibu to himself must have upset the locals. SUP’ers are pretty low on the hierarchy at that location. Wouldn’t be surprised his tires were flattened and his car keyed while he was settling matters in Calabasas.

Brown shirts. The number one expansion group in this country. Very sad.

The Malibu polar bears. Or the penguins.

Penguins and polar bears do not share the same territory. Penguins live farther south, at Doheny.

And illegal aliens flooding our country are all good so let’s give them sanctuary.

This is absurd - do they think he'll transmit coronavirus to a passing shark? The idiots who arrested him did far more to damage the concept of social-distancing than one surfer out enjoying the waves.

This coronavirus crisis is giving a lot of local politicians a taste of the power over people's lives that bureaucrats in East Germany used to have. It's going to be tough getting them to give up that power.

What about the homeless. Are they allowed to roam free? Not trying to be funny. Honestly wondering how they are enforcing that aspect.

The Governor here in NYS wants you to stay home and I constantly get NYSDEC emails telling me to go out and enjoy the great outdoors. LOL

The guy should have extended his workout and just paddled out. Stupid to stay near the shore/pier and come in there. Most paddleboarders do distance paddling.

Food = necessity.
Playing in water = not

How hard is that to understand?

I do think this is absurd, but on a normal 3-4’ swell day at Malibu there can be hundreds of people in the water. Do I think the possibility of transmission is very small even in these conditions? Yes. But if you allow one guy to go on a SUP why can’t everyone else be out there surfing? The videos going around online of the arrest are pretty crazy. The boats converging on him as he tries to escape under the Malibu pier.

My town shut down our beach and boardwalk to locals only. We are trying to keep the New Yorkers away. I normally surf a beach break with at most two or three other people even within several blocks of me. Our water temps are in the 40s so I don’t think I have to worry to much about crowded conditions like Cali.

He should have just taken off and forced them to get the boats and helicopters out. Have some fun.

There is a difference in dying FROM and dying WITH Wuhan Chinese virus. And there are rules doctors should be following.

Yesterday, California appeared to have low case numbers because of it's Social Distancing lockdown. Their numbers are too low to be believed. They have not counted test results.

Meanwhile, scientific method is being replaced by “wild was guessing.”

Guess who won’t stay at home order it’s the all about me state. He’s a prime example of what s**t for brains looks like,par for California.

Partner, I have no problem with folks going out in the wilderness or any other place since that Fauci and Birx r the biggest idiots in the whole world.

It took me a while to find out that most folks that are dying live in retirement homes and most are over 60 years of age.

I will find out the % of folks dying in these retirement homes versus total folks dying from this Bud Lite virus.


I will also compare these numbers to folks that are dying of the actual Flu and take that as a percentage also.

"The Giant Sixth Grade Brain Political Journalists" should be giving the public these numbers but they will not.

In Chicago the homeless have mostly just taken over the subway trains that nobody else is riding.

I did see on the way in today that one lady who had a little camp set up by an overpass downtown had her stuff cleared out since Monday. So maybe the cops are getting them off the streets.

Would be curios to see what woudl happen if anything, if 100’s of illegals or muslims all went out paddleboarding, and it was recorded and posted to youtube- would newsome arrest them? Would youtube censor the videos?
