California homeowners sue Coastal Commission over unconstitutional permit

Ocean: "I don't give a fuck"

People buy property with the idea that it is a permanent thing that will always be around. Oceans, seas, rivers, and lakes do not subscribe to these sensibilities and will wield the maelstrom as it sees fit. The average property owner is inherently lazy when it comes to studying things like bathemetry and erosion. "I'll just put up some shore armor to protect myself", while in doing so screwing over every property owner in hardcore mode, said devices love accelerating erosion.

This leads to articles like the above where some blithering property owning idiot stomps around about 'my rights my rights' without realizing the myriad of wrongs they are doubling down on committing.
