    If the owner took care of the place, people might not consider it run down enough to vandalize. You don't see people spray painting the wall of a nice houses, do you?

    Why doesn’t the owners just sell it for someone who will maintain it who has the money… if I was a millionaire or billionaire I’d invest in to make it better.

    It's a shame to see it all "painted up" and the windows boarded up. Not that many years ago there wasn't a mark on the place.

    @@sbarzeeful a mansion with panoramic glass windows. There was a guy watching TV on the couch with his dog. I was trying to figure out how how I was gonna scale back down the tracks because they are akward to climb. While I was doing that the guy came out to let his dog out to pee, it was like a husky or something and he made his way to the back of the fence where I was. I was on the other side by some bushes and at some point the dog started barking at me. I immediately started panicking and accepted that I might go to jail. I figured I would just tell the guy the truth and apologize or the fence and make a run for it. I ended up waiting it out. The guy never came back to look and called the dog back in. At this point I was extremely dehydrated and didn't have any water. My car was at least a 4 mile hike and a beach elevator climb down away. Up on the cliff I could see a bonfire about a mile or so up the beach. I decided to check it out to see if anyone had any water. I didn't have trouble getting back down you just have to go slow, but once I made it back down the beach there are like dozens of skunks roaming around the beach at night. I'm not even joking. I make it to the bonfire, which apparently happens every full moon or something, there's a bunch of hippies and college students scattered around in sleeping bags in tents. It's like 2 in the morning and there's one hairy ass naked dude dancing around the fire with some other people. I was able to ask for some water, but was too exhausted to make the canyon hike back to my car so I just slept on the beach and hiked back in the morning. Don't do drugs kids. The end.

    The sea level has not risen in the past 100 years. In 1992 Al Gore said that the Maldives would be underwater by 2010, sea level hasn't risen and they're now building a multi-billion dollar resort on the SAME beachfront. Obama and Bezo bought beachfront mansions. How did a career a civil servant get the money to buy MULTIPLE beachfront estates?????

    It is rising exponentially and every scientist on earth agrees. The Maldives *are* going underwater and all of those rich people have enough money not to care. Anything else you want to make up with your room temperature IQ brain?
