Nothing says American like a group of people being able to close down a public area because they don’t like other people using it. This makes me crazy – why shut down Alki because some people (myabe even a lot of people) don’t behave. how about stiff punishments? Maybe instead of shutting down the area, just get all the tow trucks in the area there on standby and tow those who park like idiots?
And how about arresting the people who shoot off the fireworks? I’ve seen the cops warn people not to shoot the fireworks – Umm, arrest them!
I don’t live where I can see the big shows, so we are one of those families that heads over to view them at Alki. I am furious that I can not drive down a public street and park in a legal manner to watch the fireworks.
I get that you guys don’t want your property trashed but I am really annoyed that the vast majority of well behaved people get punished rather than punishing the people who deserve it.
