You wouldn’t be as baffled if you read a little more carefully. The UNDERLYING cause is the authority's abdication of their responsibilities. The cause of the ORIGINAL issue was miscreant kiters and their supporters who not only NEEDLESSLY violated the LEGAL rights of the non-kiters, but then tried to DRIVE THEM AWAY for reasonably complaining about these violations.
1. I have heard the stories of the encounters on the beach first hand,
Please tell us what the NON-KITERS told you in your “first hand” experience. I’d be interested to see if it jibes with the 20+ pages which no longer available for comparison.
2. This is the catalyst of this issue?
Apparently.
3. do more damage toward the sport
I’m pretty sure that my POSTS aren’t in the same LEAGUE as the ACTIONS of the kiters who have precipitated this situation, which may have WORLDWIDE repercussions for YEARS to come.
4. According to the locals,
Are these the same locals whose ACTIONS are mentioned in #3?
5. we let the locals handle this
Good idea. They’ve been doing such a GREAT job so far. Except, in case you haven’t noticed, they’re now BEGGING for OUR help.
6. Why don't you worry about making Malibu more kite friendly.
I do. One worry is BLATANT, HARD TO CONTRADICT, BAD PUBLICITY as ammo for anti-kiters.
7. GUTLESS SWARM
I was referring to the many kiters who attacked the non-kiters for standing up for their rights. Perhaps you could NAME some ADDITIONAL kiters who are too special to have to respect the rights of others.
8. would never place anyone but himself in danger?
This is a flawed concept because it is irrelevant. The issues are the PERCEPTIONS of the non-kiters and the bad example set which PROMOTES unacceptable behavior due to the “monkey-see, monkey-do” effect.
9. The short story is simple, people have been kiting through the fish pound for a long time....
Lots of CRIMINAL and otherwise unacceptable behavior has been going on “for a long time”, so it is ALL O.K., right.
10. the fish pound is off limits.
What part of the above is so hard to understand?
11. placing signs
Perhaps you could share the WORDING of the “signs” designed by the LOCALS rather than the AUTHORITY. It is my understanding that they did NOT prohibit kiting in the pond.
12. family fucking up the flow of the beach.
This seems a tad vague. Perhaps you could be a little more specific. I’m sure you didn’t mean that they objected to the kiters VIOLATING the law.
13. for the benefit of all the beach goers
Please tell me how ignoring the violations benefited anyone ELSE besides the VIOLATING kiters.
14. now the rules must be enforced or adjusted.
Which would NOT have been necessary EXCEPT for the KITERS’ NEEDLESS refusal to either OBEY the LAW or get the LAW changed and instead try to DRIVE AWAY the non-kiters.
15. i read from you....
You obviously are selective in the posts of mine which you supposedly “read”.
16. how to fix it.
Sorry. Perhaps I should have asked you first if it was OK for me to post suggestions.
17. Toby his judgement on his forum of his website needs to be reviewed?
Sorry. Perhaps I should have asked you first if it was OK for me to post an observation regarding a forum management policy.
18. you are a great dude on the beach,
Thank you for graciously giving me the benefit of the doubt despite your perceptive observation of all the evidence to the contrary.

Ok here goes, I am sure you will not comprehend any of this but I will try any way.
1. Here is a video of one of the conflicts....judge for your self...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ws52FPePh-c
2. The DNLR official I spoke with stated There are plenty of rules that never need to be enforced or followed. This beach was running just fine on local courtesy this is proven by the fact there was never a issue in till one family made waves. It is that simple, you have blown the facts so far out of proportion it forced a response from me, some one very educated on this issue.
3. I will remind you of this again, The fish pond was not considered off limits by anyone in till the family "discover" so via digging around the laws, After the DNLR did not respond in a way the family approved of. Family said "heh there are kiters here placing my family in danger"
DNLR says, the kiters worked real hard to make that beach usable there are plenty of other areas to swim no one is trying to hurt your son" Phillip Bolek then has a personal issue with Steve S. and decides this battle must be won.
While the DNLR and the MKC try and work out weather they should or should not use the fish pond the Family goes on the offensive trying to Ban all kiters.
Once kiters understand the Fishj pnd is off limits the push for signs and try and educate the rest of the kiters....
This is not hard to understand. No one knew the rules becuase they were not listed, the rules became known after the issues, then they were followed...Period..
This is not about kiters violating the rules, the rules were not know to be violated.
Then when the rules were researched it was discovered there were tons of rules not being followed..Now the beach and 3000 yards of it may be closed to all but swimmers becuae of a 25 year old law. Pre SUP, pre Kite boarding, etc..
I will only address number 15 and 17 because the rest are stupid.
4. 15. Be happy I even try to read your dribble most don't because it is so ridiculous...
17. This is who you are a condescending person who has very little respect for those working to make things better, like Toby... Or those on Kite beach who think need your help.
Oh f*** 18 as well. Your welcome it is much harder to do then you could imagine the contrary evidence is indeed overwhelming obvious.
Billy B. wrote:I really want to drive this point home to Richard M.
The kiters never knew they were kiting through a swim zone In till after the conflicts about it being a swim zone, were resolved.
Saying these kiters broke the law and are at fault is bullshit because it has been going on for years with out issue between swimmers and kiters.
If you hold these kiters to this standard of law breaking , Then you must hold every Vessel that operated off of any of these beaches to the same accord, some thing that is not being done. They to have been breaking the same laws with out knowledge, in till the same Family started looking into the laws and pointing them out...Now they maybe used again.
Every SUP'er did not know they were violating any law, canoes, windsurfers, small sail boats, etc....
Every one did follow the rules of launch times and respected the fisherman and divers, how is this same group of Law followers and courteous beach users?
Is this the same, group that just says f*** it to the fish pound rule lets disrespect these swimming sons of bitches.....
NO, because that is now how any of it happened...
The Vessals are breaking the law also, A law that has not been enforced, just as the kiters were in the fish pond. The law didn't need to be ubdated becuase there was not a issue in till the Bulocks made one.
