Sounds like it was a private pool and that in the Atlantic's mind is code for 'racism'.

The McKinney police said, in a statement, that they were called to respond to the Craig Ranch North Community Pool for a report of “a disturbance involving multiple juveniles at the location, who do not live in the area or have permission to be there, refusing to leave.”

Apparently there are no property rights anymore.

To those who say that businesses must accommodate all customers (like same sex wedding couples looking for a photographer for their event) even private residences now must apparently accept all comers. Were they the guests of any residents there or is it like some of the neighborhood folk who walk their kids in the gate of my apartment complex but don't actually live here or pay rent to support the operation of the pool?

Not isolated behavior by a certain sector of society:

Concert goers at a hip-hop festival in East Rutherford, N.J., clashed with police. Several arrests were made, and attendees threw bottles at police dressed in riot gear, as people without tickets tried to get into the sold-out event.

If I saw this fighting on my corner you dang well should know I'd be calling the police as well....and be glad to see them ground them. They weren't just "standing around".

“Apparently there are no property rights anymore.”

Exactly. I warned many FReepers and my friends that this is the end result of the tobacco bans. Now we get to see the final destruction of private property.

A few FReepers celebrated those bans. I wonder what they are celebrating today.
