All the rhetoric...


doesn't change anything.

The sky is not falling and there will not be massive fish kills because some rich folks want to use their money to build a golf resort only rich folks will use.

That is the choice someone with lots of bucks has. The choice to spend it as they please.

Those who have to live within their means, live in Playas de Tijuana, and walk to cross the border with two dollars waving in their hands for the local cops.

Global environmentalism is proof of envy, worldwide.

How?


How patronizing of you to ask!

You're smart. Answer it yourself.

I do believe that this afternoon when the wind picks up along the coast course at Bajamar, I will knock a few range balls into the ocean to keep the world's ecology in balance.

Have yourself a rich day, even if it has to be wishful thinking.

Oh, thank you god.


It's nice to know a higher authority with all his wisdom and predictions can straighten us all out.:rolleyes: I've always subscribed to to "cause and effect" principal for fragile areas. If you fill a pool full of fish with cement the fish will be _____ So exactly when will the world end?:lol:

No Jerry I don't hate golf courses in general. My rants are always about "coastal" courses. I think they are a problem for many reasons when they are situated between the public and the ocean. It has to do with myriad problems. For those who ask. It's quite obvious really. Water is a big issue. Access is a big issue. Uncontrolled parallel growth is an important issue. Displacement of inhabitants livelyhoods are another. The usefulness of these courses is only for a select number of elite "users" and for only one thing. It may sound like I'm including ALL courses but I've never targeted any but coastal courses.

Back to the original thread.>>


Looky here, it's just nuther' sensitive area slated for change. I can dig change!! I like change. Change can be good. Change can be bad. Black and white. Sorta. We all like to feel good about a project that assails our own desires and freedoms.
I don't want no control freak, like extreme liberals telling me how my place should adhere to a certain criteria. I like to exercise my freedom(s) too and ability to have nice things as many of you do. Without sounding like a hypocrit it may be possible to convey a simple message and alternative about the blatant big-boy corporate approach. Sure it's legal but it doesn't necessarily make it right. :?: I don't applaud these guys because of their ability to hammer out complicated and expensive developments. Rather their political and monetary stature enables them to do things little people could never do. Especially on the environmental front. Sleep with the devil. It could make you money.
To me, these mega-jobs seem to impress two demographics. Those that have big bucks and can partake of all the fun and those that simply lust and approve thru their imagination. . Most folks never even give it a thought as to the way coastal golf resorts alter the environment.
So many love golf. I salute the athlete/player for what it's worth. Kudos for your determined and tenacious desire to achieve par .
In your quest to do so please remember life (should) come before sport. The animals around you do count for something. Count them in.;D Think deeeeeeeeeply.............:)

and i believe the only reason that ONLY big corp can develop now is strictly that the so called enviromentilists have made it so complecated and made to jump throu so many hoops that the little guy developer doesnt have a chance
hence be carefull what you wish for
