Southern CA photo permits; you now need TWO permits to take snapshots on the beach! (Page 12): Maybe you should go into your 'safe space'. Then you wouldn't be so afraid.

Thank you, I will. But I still believe it has become a thread that now belongs in the ATTIC.

Sir I beg to differ. Please feel free to un-watch the topic if it bothers you that much.

Perhaps you would be good enough to explain why you do not think that it should be moved to the attic.

Clearly some of us do for several reasons, and it might be informative to hear an alternative perspective.

I thought Oh oh headed to the attic, for a while, but then reading all the commentary, there were some good points made. It's been a random walk it got political then it went back to the issue of permits, and so on. Not always in the most polite manner, but mostly civil. That's what free speech is about. No guarantees you will like or agree with what you read or hear. But it's very dangerous to censor it for that reason.

Thank you. I completely concur about expressing differing perspectives and certainly censorship would be wrong in that situation.

However, this thread started to go downhill on the third page when the insults and demeaning comments started appearing. Most contributors expressed opinions reasonably regardless of their stance on the topics. Some did not and it was for those reasons not the viewpoints that some of us feel that the attic is appropriate now.

Terms such as freaks, morons, and referring to the population of a state as nuts and fruits isn't exactly well mannered behavior.

It may be that some consider that to be acceptable. If some good conversations have to be moved as a result of bad behavior by a few individuals then so be it. Perhaps they may learn to moderate their approach over time.

It's not a fee for photography. It is a fee for commercial film producers. Has no effect on people like us. LAShooter gets it completely wrong, yet again.

Well everybody got their wish. The topic was moved to the Attic.

UN-WATCHING NOW.

Keep your voice down, or they might make it retroactive. What a brazen tax-grab!
