The reality is that if go slower I have more time to get out of your way and live another day.

"The reality" is that there is no problem. The proponents of this bill took their campaign to the public, problem is they weren't honest. They talked about 150 mph boats, like that was the standard speed for the lake, it is not. They talked about the children, they threw that in for good measure. They talked about wakes and shore erosion, won't be stopped by a speed limit. They talked about congestion, once again speed limit no solution. They talked about all the deaths due to speeds above the limit, only problem, they couldn't find any so they used the Littlefield incident and spun it. Now we're down to:"The reality is that if go slower I have more time to get out of your way and live another day.". You've got nothing to support your argument.
As far as the out of state comment, tell me I don't have to pay my NH property tax anymore, stop the out of state proponents from talking, come clean about the spin and exaggeration , then maybe I'll shut up, otherwise prove your case.
