It’s nothing but white privilege...great white shark privilege.
Jaws scared the beejebers out of me. To this day, I refuse to get in the ocean. My friends say I’m missing out. Me, I say fish pee and poop in that water so I’m just fine on the beach.
I’m originally from L.A. The west coast is relatively low on shark attacks. We seldom see big sharks in close to the shore. So we never worried much about swimming in the ocean. The main thing I hated about “Jaws” was the almost full decade of never ending TV specials on sharks. I don’t need or want to know anything more about them.
When I was on the gunboats in the Danang area we shot any sharks we saw near the surface. It never seemed to reduce the numbers. One thing to remember about sharks. There are plenty more no matter how many you kill off.
