Sometimes its access restrictions preventing fisherman from getting to a tidal zone, and sometimes it's just armed guards harassing them.

It's not just billionaires. Just rich people in general who don't want "that kind" on "their" land. It's just that very rich people can buy off planning boards and hire guards.

But it's a nationwide problem.
