I liked the police response to it, which I've paraphrased below for your entertainment.
"It's really two issues. One is nude sunbathing, which has been around since the 70's and 80's, and we're not talking about that. We're dealing with that. I mean, we've installed cameras and everything, so we've got that under control. It's the actual sex that we don't want to see. Well, okay, it is the gay sex we don't want to see. It's the visitors and vacationers who have a problem with heterosexual sex, too, and since they don't want to see it, we've decided that it's going to cost us a lot of money if it doesn't stop. So, we're going to put the quietas on the sex. Now, as to the nude sunbathing, we'll address that separately. We're already on top of that. Yes, it happens, but it isn't like we don't know about it. We're there. Well, not literally there, but we might as well be with our cameras and all, and that's been an invaluable source of information for us as we monitor the situation. But, the sex has got to stop."
