I take issue with this:

Of course they won't but the city won't stop targeting the event until the organizers change their tune and maybe work with the city instead of the "lol F you" approach.
Why should it be their problem? H2O owners cannot help that a bunch of other car enthuisasts stay in a town somewhat near the show. They send out a message on social medias and website promoting safe behavior and to be respectful but you cannot control a persons actions. Most of these people dont even go to the show they just show up for a weekend in OCMD.

Because it wouldn't take any effort at all to work with the city to make the event safe(r) for both the town and the event but the organizer can't be bothered. Also let's not be coy here, the car enthusiasts are there for H2Oi which has become something bigger than what it was when it was initially conceived. Both the organizers and the city know that.
As for being a hypocrite, I've been on exactly one of those "cruises" and really was not aware of what I was getting into when I showed up. Also should point out that the cruise took place on deserted mountain back roads, not a crowded 3 lane highway.
