In effect, issuing a warning - a misdemeanor - for potentially

another way, the officer in question is issuing warnings for
potentially violating a law when he has no knowledge that the law will
be broken. He can only issue a warning at his discretion if the law
HAS been broken.


And if a boat is operating in Florida without a registration from
either Florida or some other state, a law has been broken.


Well, we ain't gonna change each other's minds on this. *:)

Let's agree to disagree.


And to disagree without being disagreeable. I'm all for that.
