I don't believe in most conspiracy theories, but this goes beyond just a theory. This is obvious.
No offense but really this looks like the playbook that was used to get the SL passed in the first place.

Step1, convince the legislature, media and anyone else how the lake is completely out of control.

Step2, play on emotions surrounding a tragic accident, create a false impression that this was all due to thousands of go fast boats screaming around the lake completely out of control, and oh throw in as much dramatic language as possible even if most of it is embellished and fabricated.

Step3, launch a tasteless campaign to marginalize anyone who questions the need for such a speed limit , including smearing the character of some of the most outspoken critics instead of having a civil debate on the merits of the proposal.

I'm with ya, I don't believe in conspiracy theories either...
