did the constitution say something about right to assembly at the beach?
Nothing in the constitution allows government to restrict assembly in public places.

it doesn’t say we have the right to assemble “except at the beach”.

and it’s not just the beach. Cops are breaking up groups of people on private property (like, you know, businesses and churches).

the constitution does not give us rights. It restricts the ability to take them away. That’s why there’s no specifically designed places to assemble. We have the right to assemble. Period.

we're likely going to see this litigated by the SCOTUS

you should go out and exercise your constitutional freedoms

I don't think the citation will hold up

Nice lane change.

Use your blinker next time.

Also, welcome to right side of history.

PS: I surfed today at a spot in LA County.

So if the air raid siren goes off, you would exercise your right to assemble and refuse to shelter?

Sounds like a smart move.
