Murder Beach Shootout

I literally had to cut the kernels off the cob for my chickens to eat because they were scared of a whole ear of corn.
 
Just watched a video rom last Friday by Mrs. Mayor and Ms. Police Chief. Crime is down in double digets and the Poleeece are doing a great job. We are completely prepared for this week end.

Waiting to she what she says Today. They are pitiful! MBPD is a laughing stock with their Ms. Chief and her subordinates. Remember from 79th North to the entrance to Market Commons on the Ocean Boulevard is Not safe when the sun goes down. If you go there accept and prepare for the worst you can imagine.

If you go to Broadway At The Beach after dark please stay in condition Yellow. This is serious business especially when your family is involved.
 
Place has turned into the hood.....shame.....many fond memories from growing up.

It hasn't just turned, it's been this way for a while. Local politicians, Chamber of Commerce, news media and, law enforcement have been able to keep it quiet for a long time. If any news of crime ever did get out, they were quick to blame it on undesirable tourists. People here knew that it was really local people committing the crimes on tourists.

Nowadays, with cameras in everyone's hands and places like Facebook, You Tube, Twitter and others, the truth gets out and spreads quickly. What used to be swept under the rug is spread far and wide now. Last week's shooting and last night's shooting has even been mentioned on local TV here.

Local bigwigs have made their bed and now they find it's not very comfortable. It's going to take a long time to undo the mess they have created. But first, they will have to want to undo it. Until then, it'll be business as usual.

Well stated and accurate description of what is really going on down there and also in a number of other areas to include some locations close to my home. It's a sad state of affairs that will be a huge problem for years to come.
 
Is it BBW this weekend? I saw a lot of enclosed trailers headed that way on Friday.
That's at least 1 thing the 2 bike weeks have in common, they should be called trailer week.

Word is spreading fast here in North Carolina to vacation outside of Myrtle Beach. Anyone I know that goes to South Carolina beaches goes on south of the city or toward Charleston areas. It’s true some trouble comes from tourist, particularly BBW but the majority is local to Horry County. I have friends and family who have retired to the city who are wishing they had not picked the area. Ocean Blvd is a cesspool of troublemakers and hotels that have been sold off to Indian motel owners who only care about rented rooms regardless of the activities not family friendly. It’s going to get much worse. This is no family area any longer.

I saw that BBW has been postponed to Labor day weekend. On their own website.

Ah, Charleston area isn't safe either. Isle of Palms is a war zone. Chad's, Kyle's, Monster Energy Drinks, and Wranglers with mud grip tires that have never gripped mud are everywhere. Myrtle Beach is definitely a much better place. Oh, fishing is terrible here too. Just keep going south to Savannah would be your safest bet.

Damn, I lived porcher ave. at 72nd, one block from the beach. That was the quietest most peaceful place I have ever lived 80's through 92. I surfed and life guarded there from about 42nd up and it was a flippin paradise. This pisses me off to no end. Liberals will F up a wet dream.
 
Honest question, what could the police do to stop the violence? I mean if they started placing jack booted patrols with MP5's on every block I'm sure the mayhem would decrease but so would the tourism bucks. And let's face it, tourism is the only thing that keeps that city alive.

The other option is to catch the criminals after the fact and make examples out of them. Again this publicizes the crime problem.

What else is there?

Seems easy enough to solve.

Eliminate all tourists. ;)

Option #2 please. Hiding the problem is yet another crime. Or it should be...

I'd that's read the other wa . Then yes its B B W down there. Lotsa big girls always there
 
Sounds like it ain't even safe for the shaggers at SOS anymore. This is why we stay in the Ocean Lakes campground.
 
I heard they were hiring a new PR guy...

MBPD started a "stand down" policy for BBW for 2015, after the 2014 multi-victim shooting at Bermuda Sands, figuring that letting them run amok would cause less mayhem then actually trying to enforce the law. I owned some property in NMB at the time, and the locals figured this was not going to work well. Lots of restaurants and shops just started closing during BBW. Because, well, they're obviously a bunch of racists who don't like getting lifted. Glad I'm out. I wonder how vacation-property real estate prices will be trending now.

I have a friend who owned a restaurant in Myrtle or North Myrtle who finally shut down most of the black bike week. He stated it was common for customers to all get up at once and walk out without paying.
 
Regular Bike Week is now 3rd week in July ... for now. Then BBW as said above is Labor Day weekend (that will mix well with “Last Week of Summer” vacationers). Then Fall Bike Week the last week of September. Murder Beach will have quite a few motor vehicle related injuries and death for that September report ...
 
Best I remember, during BBW, several businesses would close for the event and hire security to keep people off the property 24 hrs a day for the whole event. Said it was cheaper even with fines than what they would lose from thief and damages. That was several years ago.
 
Damn. I havent been to MB in years. We used to have a house at Caswell Beach. Sold it and started renting at Sunset. Seems like when every we go it's some kinda Bike Week and there is that big ass HD dealer on 17 near Sunset. Traffic is always a bear down there. Fond memories of MB and NMB from 50 yrs ago We went every summer as a kid. Sad.
 
Last weekend was bike week, this was black bike week, and then then the high school kids. From mid May to mid June, Myrtle is crazy.

The same thing Virginia Beach did 20 years ago. Keep the trouble makers Out. They did it in a grand way. Stopped every motorcycle going across their bridges for "safety" checks. Arrested hundreds for all kinds of violations. Backed up traffic for Miles. Let one through every 1?2 hour or so. As soon as the troublemakers are eliminated the people with money return and the world is ready again.
That would never work here because there is No Will. The coffers are empty here because people that used to vacation here are never coming back. The single moving entity in Murder Beach is Myrtle Beach Farms. Known by new comers as Burroughs & Chapin Company. They had to change their name because it sounded too agrarian. They abandoned down town. No Pavillion, No rides, No security. They saw it coming and fled.
Yes, JR, it Could be fixed but it would require the Leaders to have the Will to do it.

You want to stop the violence? Stop the catch and release of these criminals. The shooting last week, one of the thugs was out on bond for another attempted murder, and wearing a home detention ankle monitor.

Why stop just motorcycles? If you are going to do that, you need to stop every vehicle. Bad guys drive cars and trucks too. And, you meet the nicest people on a Honda. Are you just going to stop Harley's and Suzuki's?
