re: Rip tides: Beach’s deaths along Dauphin Island to Destin this week

Shut them all down.



Or, you could let adults be responsible for themselves and their families like we have done since forever.

Beaches have had rip tides, undertows, sharks, rays, jelly fish, and all hosts of hazards since forever. drownings aren’t new. quit trying to keep everyone safe from everything that may harm them. That’s not how this works.

I totally get what you’re saying but I can vouch for the fact that the beach here in Pensacola is very, very different than I’ve ever experienced it and I come out here often. I’ve never seen it as rough, waves consistently as high as they have been this week, and the current as strong and consistent as it has been this week. It’s not safe at all right now.
