Malibu Doesn’t Want Peasants On Their Public Land

Over at his True/Slant blog “L.A. Flaneur”, our friend Matthew Fleischer has some charming highlights of the battle by Malibu residents to prohibit camping on public campgrounds:

Says Fleischer:

God, why don’t the Freestaters – you know, the radical libertarians who showed up fully armed at a recent Obama event – ever get involved with these types of public discussions?

I can’t think of anything better than watching a bunch of Malibu millionaires square up against a posse of armed, angry, libertarian rednecks demanding 24-hour access to their taxpayer funded public land. Wonder if Malibu residents would have the balls to shout down that opposition?
