If I didn’t have a deep love of our beautiful coastline, I would say “good on you”. You get what you deserve. However, it probably wouldn’t bother them whatsoever. A couple years ago, parking was limited to permit only between the hours of 9 A.M. and 6 P.M., so my daughter and I would walk the beach daily before 9 A.M.. Then two years ago, they increased the permit only parking to 24 hrs. I called town hall, they laughed and said they had found in the town code that they could increase the permit only parking to 24 hrs. When I asked about all the senior citizens walking before 9 A.M., they advised me to purchase an out of town permit at an exorbitant price.

Guess I’m just a chronic complainer, but I’m tired of being on the defensive all the time. It’s so scary. My children just laugh at me and complacently follow “the rules” like sheep. As long as life is good and they have decent jobs, they don’t seem to care. What happens when the SHTF?

That complacent attitude is representative of 90% of the people, I fear. My family is the same way. My mom and her husband are even more cowardly - I remember a few years ago, they were afraid to tell people they were Republicans (not because the Republicans were RINOs at that time, but because the people they were talking to were Dems.) I was so ashamed to be related to them.

The courage of our forefathers certainly doesn't run in todays generations' veins, does it?
