20 senior citizens, mostly in wheel chairs, died. Probably because of overloading and design problems. Now the opposition claims these people died because the marine patrol were to busy enforcing the speed limit. How low can you get? And how absurd the argument?
Does New York have a law requiring people in wheel chairs to wear PFDs? And if there is such a law (which I doubt) its the responsibility of the tour boat captain to see they are on.
These ridiculous, low blow arguments are not helping your cause!

I don't really have a cause, and nothing at stake. I was just pointing out the absurdity of the whole situation. You keep blaming the death of your neighbor on the lack of a speed limit which is just as absurd as my argument. The deaths and the speed limit are both completely unrelated to eachother. That said, considering what happened, don't you think it's really silly to point to Lake George as a testament to boating safety? It was quite likely the deadliest lake to be on last year.
