I am still confused....So this is a public ramp? I could sit in my pickup truck and write down every number that used that ramp all day, every day and no one could do anything about it. But just because some kid, that was trying to do his/her job said they did not, but did, write down some numbers, this became a national news item? Wait a second...a kid lied? Stop the presses. I have never heard of someone lying, to get out of a fight before in my life. Seriously people...this is Summer. Time to be having fun. Not admonishing some poor kids at a boat ramp. Those hosts are trying to contain an invasive species that is costing our towns money. They are doing what they are supposed to do and instruct boaters. These kids are working on their summer vacation, trying to help boaters to do the right thing. To make such a big deal about publicly displayed plate and reg numbers is petty beyond belief. There is plenty of other issues in this world to worry about. If you are so paranoid about Big brother, the next time you pull up to a public ramp, just drape your vehicles with a large parachute or blue tarp. You know the Gov't satellites are up there hovering in space watching you. Heck I might just be in the parking lot, with my binoculars, writing down your numbers.
