Meh...honestly, it’s just that I don’t give a wet crap about pointless arguing of nonsense on the internet anymore. Of course, that does put a damper on this whole pointless conversation we’re having, doesn’t it? :-)

You’re right, I did bring that up, and I didn’t look it up first. I was wrong. It isn’t the most densely populated part of the state (though...anyone who lives here is shaking their heads at that and wondering just how that happened...Greenville is must be exploding faster than we all thought in population)

The idea that somehow our beaches (when it’s still cold) are attracting throngs of stupid kids rubbing on each other, therefore need to be closed to everyone, is just plain off the mark. I happened to be at the beach in FL during Spring Break last year(ugh) and it’s a nightmare I’d never want to experience again. Kids everywhere, throwing up on each other, screaming and carrying on...if our beaches were like that, I’d certainly NEVER go to them.

Here in SC, there’s already an order in place for more than a certain number of people not to congregate together, that should be enough to break up whatever gaggles of morons decide that they feel invincible at any given moment, if it were to happen.

I can appreciate your line of work making you feel like you’re being put in danger by people who act stupidly, but why are we all assumed to be acting stupidly? Why isn’t there a responsible way to walk on the beach? There’s plenty of room there. Even in Hilton Head in July, I know I don’t hang out within 6 feet of strangers, why would I start now?

Now, closing Myrtle Beach might make some sense, because they seem overrun with people on the mulleted/retarded side, but even they seem to stay more than 6 feet apart even when the beach is crowded and there isn’t a threat of imminent death. Just stay out of the Harris Teeter beer aisle and you’re good.
