I would continue to question the information you're providing and the context your placing it in. Anyone can cut and paste from the AZ legislature's website but, I'm going to get back to my life now. I am saddened you think you're the only one who knows the law. I admit I was mistaken when I said 3 OUI's are not counted for felony. I forgot that changed.
We obviously disagree on some issues and according to alot of the other forum members I'm the idiot! I've been called worse. With sleep and counseling I'll get over it I'm sure.
It obvious there are alot of people here that depend on you to be their "boat cop". I've never heard of an officer going so far above and beyond that they'd spend their own time policing the world from the internet. Or are you working right now? Either way I hope you get some compensation for all of your insight.
I am thankful for the job you do and wish you well. I hope this summer season is good to you! Don't work too hard!
Final post for me
If you'd like to respond to the other questions or comments I had in the thread I'd appreciate it (i'll check in for a little longer) if not, I know your busy.
OLC out...
In a year, when you have established a reputation as an interested and helpful boater (I think you are underneath the rough exterior) you absolutely have to let us know that you started out as OLC!
Frankly, I think you care, and you have taken the time to get nearly schooled on the subjects. Though technically incorrect, you were more correct than I would have hazarded a guess. Tone it down a little and you will be fine.
There are a couple of people you don't want to cross swords with on here... Rex and Alan are two. Both contribute heavily to our community in different ways, and if you asked me who brought the sound statutes to our attention as well as impending litigation and what we could do to stop it (signatures, letters to congress etc...) the top of my list would be Rexone. Actually, my only list. Rexone made more effort than anyone I know to educate and help stop these sound restrictions from going into law.
Pick on someone else. If you need a list, PM me and I will send it to you. The list will be full of easy targets that you can rest assured you will have a minimum of a 70% appeal rating for bashing...
Are you a democrat by any chance?
