You cannot legally say sailing in an unsafe operation.

What is the basis of this conclusion?





The basis is faulty law that was written to further an agenda in the
hope it would not be challenged. The longer it stands unchallenged the
more chance it has of being used as precedence in even more
unconstitutional laws. If you're really a lawyer then you know law is
written all the time knowing it won't stand up to the first challenge.
It gives the writer a chance to fine tune it later on and in the
meanwhile liberals get they way.


In other words, you have no basis whatever for that claim. You expect
that
if you sling enough bull**** around someone might think you know what
you're
talking about.


Sorry, but that's the method lawyers use. Sling bull**** until something
sticks. Here in Florida the governor signed into law a new anchoring law
that prohibits municipalities from regulating anchoring anywhere in
state waters other than mooring fields. Yet, municipalities are ignoring
the new law because they say until it is challenged it court and upheld
it has no real legal standing. Exactly what I'm saying above. If you're
a lawyer you would know how this works.
