This is not a scene you see everyday!! These Seals have been here for years and no harm has been done to them. This proves that People and animals can share such a wonderful place. Who cares if the pool was originally for children to enjoy....when I went there I saw a lot of children having a blast enjoying the view. Well, they can't swim in it you may say....There are plenty of beaches in San Diego where people can swim and enjoy the ocean as well. People should stop protesting and let nature do it's thing.

You would be more effective arguing the pro-seal case if you concentrated on facts and logic. npk32, It's clear from your loaded question "are you concerned with the well-being of the seals?" and the fact you ignore Ryan's detailed, sensible reply, only to passive-aggressively come back with "Again, does this mean Ryan doesn't care about the well-being of seals…" that you're trying to substitute shaming for facts and logic.

However, the quote below is what caused my initial confusion. "To answer your question, I am concerned with the well-being of the seals as far as it relates to the sustaining of their species. The use of the Children's Pool as a rookery is not vital to the well-being of harbor seals in San Diego, or the California stock, OR the global population." Again, does this mean Ryan doesn't care about the well-being of seals at Casa Beach because this particular population is not vital to the well-being of harbor seals as a species?
