Yes, that's called a "troll". or perhaps "spam"; however, given the
strong language ("terrorist kayak instructors"???), I'd tend to
categorize it as the former. Anyway, it has nothing to do with the
discussion and the person isn't interested in discourse on the merits
of the device. You see this kind of kook all over Usenet and they're
best ignored. There's nothing you can do to stop them from posting to
an unmoderated group, so just get over it and go on.

Jones... who really *wants* to drown children because he has
pedophobia!

This is to warn parents of the CRIMINAL Rescue Safety Scandal of the
North American Canoe and Kayak Industry. The industry's definitions of
the words "rescue" and "safety" are misleading and deliberately
endangering to life. Canoes and kayaks are AS DANGEROUS AS POSSIBLE,
FOR GOOD REASON: TO MAKE MONEY FOR SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS.

Instructors cannot match the rescue safety capabilities of 10 year old
girls having NO instruction or experience. This is against the larger
interests of society, to say nothing of the agonized deaths of the
victims, and the needless grieving of their families. It is a horrible
and obvious crime!!!!!

Do you find this hard to believe? It is a nasty fact that some people
will bully and exploit vulnerable persons, for money or simply the
power and control over others. A US Department Of Homeland Security
orange alert warns that FRAUD ARTISTS, SADISTIC MURDERERS AND
TERRORISTS are well documented criminal groups in the kayak instructor
community.

Safe, reliable SPONSONS offer PROTECTION to your children from
sadistic, murderous, terrorist kayak instructors even at RED ALERT
level!!!!!
