There is no question that speed limit supporters have been more civil and respectful in this forum. But then common sense, logic, evidence, public opinion and Coast Guard Statistics are on our side. All they have is a "need for speed" and a misplaced "live free or die" attitude.
BI, with all due respect, this style has been used equally by posters on both sides of the speed limit debate here.

No, it has not. Not even close. Not in the same ballpark.

I rarely have used personal comments, and then only if provoked. Shall we post a list of comments and innuendo about me as opposed to those I have made about others?

I was not talking about you, nor anyone else specifically. Just the two groups, the proponents and the opponents.

No, let's please not.

How about we all act like adults and return to the original intent of this thread:

Default OK it's over

The poll is closed. So it is what it is, read what you want into it. But voting is stopped.
