The beach was only about 40% full on Labor Day because the carrying capacity of the beach is giant mansions, tiny dilapidated duplexes and street parking. And I don't think there's anywhere in America that's as racially segregated as Los Angeles County within 5 miles of the ocean.

If you went anywhere else on planet Earth and told them that society should spend considerable resources ensuring that the only way to access a beach is via a private automobile, they would rightfully put you in a straightjacket.

Laguna yesterday, and I think OC gives it a run for its money.

Laguna at least runs free shuttles from remote parking down to the beach for those who don't want to sit in traffic.

That's true.

I'm sure the coastal commission is doing their best to preserve as much of that parking as possible, what more could you ask?

My wife knew kids in Inglewood that didn't even know there was a beach nearby.

Ah, which crimes against urbanism did the CCC commit today?

WTF can’t we camp on the beach anymore?

on Sunday it was impossible to park but the beach was barely popping

This is the America our oligarch overlords want.
