No surfing... anywhere

I just found out that Folly City Council has approved a plan to increase the "safe swim zone" to encompass the entire beach. This means NO surfing on the entire shoreline of Folly between 10:00am and 6:00pm May through September. If you are caught surfing between these times you may get slapped with a $500 ticket or (as we all remember) even thrown in jail.

You see. This is just another example of Obama forcing his communist regime of big government down our throats. Next everyone will be required to buy rashgaurds or thrown in jail. I'm sick of "the man" telling me where and when I can surf. I think maybe it's time WE told "the man" what's what.

This tactic the local governemnt is trying to implement is absolutely unnecessary and completely unlikely. There is no possible way they could stop people from surfing from 10am to 6 pm. If this actually becomes law or whatever they want to call this stupid set of rules, more and more people will be going on dawn patrol, and if the waves are really good the likelyhood of people getting out of the water at 10 am is rediculous and downright racist as someone already said. This makes me loos my faith in man kind because this is only limiting peoples freedom of expression which in my mind is a direct violation of the constitutional ammendments.
