BELIEVE IT OR NOT "Lifeguards urge caution after pulling nearly 200 from surf south of Huntington Beach pier " The Orange County Register

Lifeguards like to increase their numbers of so-called rescues when sometimes all they do is wade out in the water and say "are you OK" or in other cases they rescue a person who doesn't even need to be rescued. in fact one time a lifeguard at San onofre tried to initiate a rescue for me when I didn't need a rescue . I was doing very well but their macho self-congratulatory attitude sometimes makes them think we're all weak swimmers accept them.... I was actually a better swimmer than the Lifeguard who thought he needed to rescue me I actually told him to leave me alone

OC to LA, Latinos ruin beaches, heavy-handed bossy lifeguards compound problems "From drones to drunks: Huntington Beach police will be ready for problems at U.S. Open of Surfing" - The Orange County Register

The Lifeguard problem is actually a top-down issue I think it comes from high sense of entitlement lifeguard supervisors. Latino problem is simply one of too many Latinos who have a reckless disregard for other people I also have a problem with throwing their trash away. For some reason San Diego beaches are much better and most lifeguards much nicer
