Boater who nearly filleted surfers at Lower Trestles cited with “reckless operation of a vessel”

The Butcher of San O.

While Santa Barbara area surfers had all eyes and attention on Leadbetter beach, over the weekend, where a man with a fishing spear and a man with a taser engaged in mortal combat, San Clemente adjacent surfers were worried about different weaponry. Namely, the butchering propellers of a motorboat.

Watch here.

On Friday afternoon, surfers in the lineup at Lower Trestles had to paddle for their lives as the aforementioned vessel sped right through their midst. The whole mess was caught on Surfline, Brian Weber telling the site that it was “amazing that no one died.

Jo Biswas, a spokesperson for California State Parks, told SF Gate, “California State Parks Peace Officers identified and cited the boater for reckless operation of a vessel following the incident at San Onofre State Beach on Friday. We are thankful no one was injured and remain committed to protecting the safety of all visitors on the water and along our coast.”

The captain has remained unidentified, though possible charges might be brought by the district attorney.

Now, if there was going to be a battle royale between fishing spear, taser and outboard engine, who do you think would come out on top? The propellers would do much damage but difficult to wield. I think I’d still take the fishing spear.

You?

the US has the ability to impose tariffs on counters that do business with its enemies.
all this is all meaningless crap, because if California did secede, the U.S would declare war and kick the shit out of California, push all the liberals off a cliff into the ocean, take back the land and make it a much better place……and say: Thank you for your attention to this matter

the tariffs alone would kill California.
can you imagine the tariffs that would be employed by the USA should California form it’s own nation? C-RAP…..
not only that but, ether would never be another democrat elected President in the history of the US since California has 54 electoral votes that always swing dem.

Google says:
New Mexico and Louisiana are cited as states with the highest crime rates, with New Mexico having the highest rate of violent crime and Louisiana having the highest homicide rate and overall lowest safety scores in some reports. These states are often followed by Alaska and Arkansas in rankings based on crime per capita.
Also says
Multiple recent reports indicate that New Mexico and West Virginia are among the states with the biggest drug problems.
And yes CA has the most homeless. It’s the climate.

Glad you managed to give it a rest on this post then, but when I type Trump into the BG search engine your name pops right up.

“there are two Trumps, the media Trump and the private Trump. By All accounts and from the people that I personally know that have met him and some that actually work for him, and almost everyone who personally knows him is one of the most caring and pleasant you would ever meet”

“As far as Trump goes, my cousin works for him and one of my close friends is one of his close friends so…”

lol, those two crack me up.

Reply to  Brutus

you probably should have just left your personal biases out of it and asked a direct question, because the way you asked the question is not within the context of the verses.
the verse(s) you reference were in response to a conversation with a good, decent and devout young man who had adhered to all the commandments and laws of God; who asked Jesus “what he still lacked” to get into the kingdom of heaven, so Jesus tested him and responded:
“If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
The man walked away sad as he was not willing to give up his possessions.
the camel example was meant to be somewhat humorous. of course it is impossible for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle.
Jesus disciples knew then how difficult it would be for any man to enter the kingdom of heaven and asked Jesus:“Who then can be saved?”
But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

the two points being, none of us are perfect. but through faith, the salvation of Christ and God, all things are possible.

here we go….so yes ,I agree, spiritual warfare…if you would like to go down this road…lets go?

One of the greatest spiritual shortcomings is the thought and actions of people claiming Christianity, is making money according to the prosperity Gospels…..which seems like the majority of MAGA Christians…….so private jets/Million $ wages/Millions in assets….all claiming Jesus’s/Gods name…nothing could be further from the Bibles teachings…thoughts?

Not sure now how much of the bible you know….but when Jesus met with Nicodemus…Jesus explained that there was new covenant between God and his people……and that you had to born again into the new covenant which came from Christ…..so Christians were reborn again……this is basic Christian Theology……

So Christianity was born of Christ our savior…from Judaism….the covenant that God/Moses etc had created was super ceded by Christ , calling Jews to reborn again as a Christian….

So when I said Jesus was the founder of born again Christianity…I think something was lost in yours or my translation….

this saying isn’t about a jew vs christian thing , yes of course Christ was a jew… But Christ was the only one to live a truly christ-like life, to live up to his own ideals and values, which all those who follow him are supposed to be emulating. He was the true/legit thing, everyone since has fallen short.

Problem isn’t that Nietzsche was wrong — he was right, as far as it goes. The problem is that christians quit trying to actually achieve true christ like ness … As unattainable as that might be in reality, it’s really the point of being a christian, or so I used to think.

Nietzsche, actually admired Jesus….as a radical , life affirming ethic…..a man of peace love and inner strength…….but he believed Christianity which was in his time shaped by Saint Paul and the Church…that they had corrupted Jesus’s teachings into a doctrine of slave morality……so we keep on trying …
