I'm going over to try to visit Martin's Beach, just south of Half Moon Bay, both because it's a nice day, and because the law specifically prohibits private landowners from blocking public access to any of the California coast. Vinod Khosla has been blocking the public, and was forced to re-open access last year. I'm going to check to see if people can go there on a Sunday.

He's actually taking this to the Supreme Court. https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Martins-Beach-billionaire-owner-takes-fight-over-12665591.php

Beach needs a good ole fashioned be-in, with scrofular, unshaved nudist hippies with face paint rutting in the dunes and doing weirding dances around bonfires.

Bring a bunch of homeless and set up a camp.

Fling-poo, garbage, sleeping bags and needles will bring this heartless oligarch to his knees!

What an asshole. Beaches belong to all. No one must have the right to restrict it's access.
Hawaii has similar laws. If the Supreme Court rules on the assholes favor it could jeopardize everyones access to Hawaiian beaches by resorts and property owners.

He actually has a net protecting his house from such throwing.

Drove to the beach there today, but only by asking nicely for the removal of parking cones blocking the street.

The area is a kind of crappy little village of houses, which is interesting. That is not mentioned in the newspaper articles.

The beach itself is very nice though.

I don't know, I can appreciate having control of your own land, and it's definitely a double standard. Just try accessing the beach anywhere by Camp Pendleton.

If you can’t own the beach, then you can’t own the beach. I don’t see how that idea is so fucking complicated.
Same mother fuckers who want to keep the public off their “private” beach are the same ones who want open borders and unlimited immigration. Limousine Leftists are despicable and deserve to be invaded in every orifice!

Just open up an immigration camp for families and their kids right next to his beach to keep them united and happy. It's about time Half Moon Bay pays their fair share. My prediction is you will see 1000s of NIMBY petitions in no time against moving some good border-town vibes to HMB. There are no better hypocrites than the snobby armchair leftoids.

Betcha he'd be the first in line if a storm eroded the beach in front of his property for gov't money.
