Stop Ocean Dumping!

Here is a disgusting story about the lack of bathrooms in some towns on the shore. Towns that want lots of tourists have lots of bathrooms and towns that don’t want tourists definitely try to limit the number of bathrooms.

[ "You see people walk in up to their waist and sit there for 10 or 15 seconds and then splash themselves in that region," said Joe Palmer, a veteran Margate lifeguard. "We just hope they're not laying sea dumps."]


I guess if you are going to do that in the Ocean, don’t make it so obvious. Other activities that are frowned upon that people from up north tend to do at the shore are:

Pitching an 8 person tent in the middle of a crowded beach, or soon to be crowded beach.

Feeding sea gulls.

Screaming when you see a horseshoe crab.

Playing your radio too loud near others.

Playing with one of those football toys that whistle when it is thrown.

Barbequing in the parking lot.

Shore Municipalities and the employees who work the beaches also deserve some suggestions. If you are going to insist on charging $7 or $8 a head to get on your tax payer built beach (Sea Bright) than have the decency to empty the friggin’ garbage cans more than once a week.
