Alright, I just adjourned our Power Brokers emergency meeting. We are scrambling now that we've been exposed! We have hired Rudy Guliani to speak for us, you'll be hearing from him soon.
Now, back to reality. If you want to really know Reggie Gaskins, you'll be very disappointed in me, versus your imagination version, I promise. Just know that I'm a real person, I live here, love and care for our community and beach. I don't know a single other member of SoWal and have never conversed directly with any of them, or met in person. Not my game. My life's work is enough challenge, no room for that.
Or..... I'm a juvenile drug offender in Paducah on house arrest in my Mom's basement, and just love my keyboard. You pick.
Conspiracy theories of Power Brokers on beach are Chicken Little add-ons to the CU scare. A geographical group of people reacting to being sued with the very tax dollars coming out of their hides is not a class war. It's defensive behavior against obscene assault by their neighbors and county officials. For those of you making it class warfare, read a book. And not the Saul Alinsky crap that is demonstrated in this current public circus.
1) Stop telling people what YOU want for THEIR property until you are willing to do the same. You have zero voice in how you view their property, or what they should do with it, regardless of where it is. Our laws don't work that way. If you want to buy beach property, and let it be for public use, be that hero. But do it with your money, stop being so honorable with other people's money. And yes, its money. Just like the money in your house, in your car, in your 401k. If that is your only argument, that beach property is more expensive so owners must be greedy rich, you obviously don't know most of the BPO's in Walton County. Go meet them, you'll be embarrassed at your words and behaviors.
2) Most smart, fiscally responsible adults will put real estate, second homes, lots, farms, acreage, in legal categories to protect against tax loss and to further structure the liability. An LLC is the cheapest, most common vehicle to use towards that intelligent end. To imply that an LLC or a trust is a reason to suspect nefarious intent is plain ignorance. It exposes your naïveté to today's family finance structures. I'd be concerned if I were your family member.
Let's get back to solving our beach problem, and enough with the shiny objects and squirrels. Class envy, class warfare, class hate is unbecoming of a community that honors turtles and rainbows.
Regardless of who wins,
Customary Use Will Destroy Our 30A Legacy
