Ocean City’s Beaches Freer Than Its Speech

Down the shore: Ocean City is planning on voting to make the beach open 24/7, and (get this) everyone is pretty psyched about it. The cops say they already patrol the beach 24 hours a day, and the state was the one who suggested it in the first place. (State and federal funds are being used to replenish the beach.)

Meanwhile, the literary magazine at Ocean City High School was censored before publication, due to curse words and “inappropriate content.”
