Who doesn't love the seals on the beach in La Jolla? I found out for myself when I was minding my own business with my daughter as we watched the seals and I made a pro-seal comment. Before you knew it, some LUNATIC is IN MY FACE telling me I didn't know what I was talking about.
DON'T CALL US ANTI-SEAL, WE'RE PRO BEACH ACCESS!!!!!!
Yeah, right. Tell that to the seals. Come on dude, there's a lot of beach in San Diego. Where? Umm, how about 50 yards in either direction? It's not like terrorists have taken over Casa Beach. It's not like Rosie O'Donnell is on the beach in a bikini! They're seals! They're cute! And they were here long before you were so get over it.
YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT A LOCAL!!!! I USED TO DIVE HERE. ASK ANY LA JOLLAN!!!!
Hey buddy, you really think you speak for all locals and all La Jollan's? I've lived here nearly my entire life and sorry, I vote for the seals. Look, I'd rather look at some cute seal basking in the sun than your fat angry face. On a scale of 1 to 10, seals rate a 10 and you rate, well, is zero too high? And really, when Ellen Browning Scripps dedicated the seawall to the children, I don't think she mumbled "and F-Off seals". In fact, I bet she would be pretty pissed off if that lunatic was in her face telling her she didn't know what she was talking about.
No matter how hard I tried to get this guy out of my face with comments like "Hey, I don't want to debate" and "Look, leave us alone" he would not back off. This guy was from the lunatic group that wants to ban the seals and all I can say is they should check his meds and maybe next time leave this clown home. Who knows, maybe this is part of their strategy to scare off the pro-seals people and tourists.
So here's my strategy - don't get into a fight with these guys. But do get involved by emailing the City Council members and Mayor telling them you support turning this area into Marine Mammal Park. Go to http://lajollafriendsoftheseals.org/help.html to get the email addresses. Even if you're not a local, write them and support the seals.
And maybe ask them to help us keep the lunatics like the ANTI-SEAL ACTIVISTS out of our faces by putting them behind a rope - far, far away.
SUPPORT THE SEALS! http://lajollafriendsoftheseals.org/
Pass this message on! Help the seals remain on the beach!
