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.
