I see from your most recent news account (“La Jolla’s ‘Great Divide,’ April 7, Page 1) that the contention over the Children’s Pool at La Jolla has not been settled. As someone who has frequently visited La Jolla, most recently in mid-March, I want to add my voice to those who are supporting keeping the Children’s Pool as a safe area for seals during the pupping season. My husband and I were appalled to see people not only picnicking in the area, but skindiving with spears, swimming right up to the mother seals and babies. I don’t believe that the people who are invading this beach and harassing the seals mean no harm. Of course, they mean harm! Interfering with pregnant and nursing moms and their babies will mean seal pups will die! Why are people so greedy that they have free access to 99.9 percent of the beaches, but can’t leave this one for the seals for even part of the year? My family and I, who have loved La Jolla, will not be vacationing there anymore. We won’t spend money at your hotels and restaurants if you allow these morally bankrupt acts to continue. I’m sure other visitors feel the same. — Rachel S. Imper is a La Jolla visitor.
