I don't know how these celebrities property deeds read but ours is spelled out exactly what is our and that it has been deemed private property by the county Getting people to respect "private property" & "no trespassing" signs is another matter

If you read the article in detail, its clear that there are public trails to the beach (and some other apparently poorly marked easements) - so people can legally be there. I live in Santa Barbara and have driven past this area for a number of years on business. We have similar problems here. The beach is getting much more use than in the past and that is a fact. It is also pretty clear that some folks are abusing private property. Its a mixed bag. I do admit to a chuckle when the limousine liberals show their true colors.
