South Padre Island, Texas
We camped on the beach for a few weeks. We decided then to use some of the free camping spots on the beach.
Worst mistake ever.
The police had been watching my family and had set a road block somewhere down the road and waited for them to drive down it.
They then pulled them out of the car at gunpoint, and made them get on their knees (in their shorts) on scalding hot cement.
The dug their hands through all of their belongings and treated them like drug dealers!

We got pulled over and searched on south padre island 2 years ago. We asked the cops why we were being stopped several times, no reason was given. I will never vacation to south padre island again.
