The landlords who rent retail space at a high-end shopping center in Malibu, California have decided enough is enough with Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, and other Porsche enthusiasts meeting up in their parking lot. Reportedly, a friend of the famous comedians, who are both huge gearheads, say they’re being treated like the “MS-13 of Malibu” as the landlords have called in the police to clear the car enthusiasts.
Even if you try to be respectful when meeting with other friends who have cool cars, some people view you as outlaws wanting to burn down the entire town.
Seinfeld, Leno, and their Porsche-loving friends have been meeting up the Malibu Kitchen regularly for breakfast on Sundays for 20 years without any trouble. What changed was all the government-imposed lockdown measures in California. With people bored out of their ever-living minds, word spread of the low-key gathering and the crowd ballooned to the point the landlords decided it was a nuisance.
You really can’t blame all these car enthusiasts who were sick of everything being closed for flocking to some of the only fun to be had in California. After all, the beaches were shut down and all sorts of other ridiculous measures. But what was an intimate gathering of Porsche enthusiasts in the area exploded into a circus of just about every type of gearhead, including the most annoying out there.
As the crowd grew, landlords hired private security to try keeping parking spots available for paying customers. That’s understandable, but the situation apparently was so bad the landlords felt compelled to next call the police. One has to wonder if some more innovative measures could have alleviated the problems, but without all the details of the situation that’s an impossible question to answer thoroughly.

I don’t think Lurkin was referring to all of CA. Just Seinfeld and Leno who are rabid libs. THEY are getting what they voted for (if they voted in CA).
...but but but, driving a car is a crime against the planet...[/Climate Cretins]
And a media whore.

Gavin Newsom's fault! Oh, and Leno's fault for always voting for Demagogic Party candidates.
I think the problem may have been that the limited number of parking places were being taken over by non-customers. We used eat in an out-of-the-way place (since out of business) where some small fry local celebrities (Tom Silva, from This Old House, former Patriot Fred Smerlas, ...) would eat on the same nights and times we did. If it had been Doug Flutie, or Donnie Wahlberg the place probably would have been mobbed with gawkers.
It was DEFINITELY a show about nothing at all.
the bikes cost that much now days?? WOW had no idea.
most people don’t even move over for the riders on the freeway.
I a sure Lurkin was, but it gets old. besides FR is here in CAl, about 135 miles north of where i live
I get it. We lived in CA for several years and took a beating from our conservative friends. Let it roll off your back; nothing’s going to change. (Or relocate like we did.)
Parking lot Nazis, No Parking Lot For You....... or you either...... say Jay could I get an autograph?
Jay Leno may be a Democrat, but on the Tonight Show he was an equal-opportunity skewer of politicians. Here are a few of my favorite Jay Leno lines about Obama and his administration:
“I was going to start off tonight with an Obama joke, but I don’t want to get audited by the IRS.”
On NSA surveillance: “We wanted a president who listens to all Americans – now we have one.”
On a new IRS commissioner: “He’s called ‘acting commissioner’ because he has to act like the scandal doesn’t involve the White House.”
On closing the Guantanamo prison for terrorists: “If he really wants to close it, turn it into a government-funded solar power company. The doors will be shut in a month.”
Concerning the Benghazi, Associated Press, and IRS scandals: “Remember in the old days when President Obama’s biggest embarrassment was Joe Biden?”
On Obama saying he didn’t know about the IRS scandal: “He was too busy not knowing anything about Benghazi to not know anything about the IRS.”
“The White House has a new slogan about Benghazi : Hope and change the subject.”
“It’s casual Friday, which means that at the White House, they’re casually going through everybody’s phone calls and records.”
“It is not looking good for President Obama. Today his teleprompter took the fifth.”
On Obama’s commencement address: “He told the young graduates their future is bright unless, of course, they want jobs.”
On a Chicago man who set a record for riding a Ferris wheel: “The only other way to go around and around in a circle that many times is to read the official report on Benghazi.”
On White House claims of ignorance on the scandals: “They took ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ out of the Pentagon and moved it into the White House.”
– “These White House scandals are not going away anytime soon. It’s gotten so bad that People in Kenya are now saying he’s 100 percent American.”
“...without all the details of the situation that’s an impossible question to answer thoroughly.”
WOW! Somebody pinch me!
A “journalist” actually wrote that instead of doing what all the other Yahoo! writes do, and just making a bunch of stuff up.
A ray of light pierces the darkness...
“Remember in the old days when President Obama’s biggest embarrassment was Joe Biden?”
Yeah. Seems like just yesterday...
WAIT...
And Obama famously said during the Democrat primary campaign “Never underestimate Joe’s ability to f- things up.”

They want breakfast. is that a crime?
Its California, so with Newsome, quite possibly yes it may be a crime!
They’re in a parking lot for shops. I don’t see a problem. The worst problem there is the giant storks in the palm trees above, who make the biggest bird plops in the world. I’ve seen them aim and hit butter leather convertible seats.
These spoiled rich leftist can’t even meet up at a parking lot in California. Funny stuff!
Looks like they’ll need to do a zoom car meet!
“the bikes cost that much now days?”
I was looking at 4-5 year old HD streetglides and couldn’t find one for under 22k at a dealer. Same bike from a private owner is between 17k to 20k.
Imports are a little more reasonable I would imagine
