I guess historically low income housing becoming prime beach property and pricing people out is a real thing there. Seems like a mess.

The Dems there support subsidising them to make up the difference in their increased rent b/c its not their fault they can't afford it anymore. Wild.

Nope, nothing to do with gentrification. These bad actors are mostly teens.

I'm not even sure if there's ever a reason given by the mob other than to see and be seen, often coupled with some sort of celebratory event.

If I had to ascribe a cause, it would be the fact that these people can't have anything nice so they go somewhere nice and trash it.

The military used to have something called a DM grenade. Tear gas just burns your eyes, but doesn't physically incapacitate you. A DM grenade would drop you to your hands and knees throwing up your guts. Reaction was pretty much immediate. You can't do much when your body is trying to turn itself inside out. When chemical weapons were declared illegal the DM grenade was deemed a chemical weapon and disappeared from the inventory. The DM grenade, if it were allowed, pretty much defines instant consequences.
