Christine, res- <<<While I would not like to hamper your freedoms unduly, these vehicles have a very high fatality/serious injury rate, and they traumatize birds and animals as well, some of whom are endangered.>>>

Really Christine, you seem so sure of your information here. Please tell me. How many fatality/serious injuries happen per year from personal watercraft? How many birds and animals were traumatized last year? And please give me the statistics on endangered species which were specifically effected by personal watercraft last year?

This must be a HUGE number. I can't wait to see!

And why not ban boats too Christine? Why single out personal watercraft??

I'll tell you why, "ultra liberal left environmental zealots" just hate to see people having a good time. Personal watercraft are a lot more fun than gas hogging pleasure boats.
