Talk about quoting someone out of context!!!! I could do the same thing to anyone's words who has ever posted here - but that would be wrong. And you have the gaul to ask that I not flame you for such a contrived attack on me and on my posts???!!! Give me a break.

And I still stand by my statement that I have never attacked another member, except in my own defense. Show me just one instance where I have done otherwise - because taking a bunch of stuff completely out of context proves nothing.

Thank you ES. I now can count myself among a very special group of people whom I respect. I have been attacked by you for saying nothing more than repeating your own words.

Since every one of your post is a "defense", I guess you can say that you have never attacked someone outside of a defensive post. But you certainly have attacked members unnecessarily in those post.

My favorite is when you attack all of us who quote the state motto. It is a little hard to justify an attack on a group of people in order to defend against one member's comment.

I look forward to your next attack, I mean defense.

You did take everyone of those quote of mine that you posted out of context. That is a fact. Calling you on doing something like that is not an attack - it is defending myself.

What was your purpose of taking portions of 21 of my posts out of context? How did doing so add anything to the discussion here?

I have criticised some of those who are opposed to the speed limit of using the state motto to support thier supposed rights, while not showing any concern for the rights of others. My comment was directed at those who have actually used the state motto in this way, since I was quoting them. BTW: traveling at high speeds on a recreational lake is not a right granted by the state of NH. Show me where I made this a personal attack on any member.

supposed rights? Show me anywhere that says a person can't go fast on a recreational lake. Don't count Squam, it's not a recreational lake, but more of a snob lake

Your comments and arguements are becoming so far out in left field there's really no point in calling you out anymore, you do it yourself.

BTW traveling at any speed is a freedom. That is until people like you start wanting to make them rights.

"Live Free or Die" loosely means living free of stupid laws. I tend to think of it as a way of life. Democrats are slowly taking away our way of life.

I was out on the lake for hours yesterday and had no trouble spottng Loons that were over 1/4 mile away from me. Kayakers I could see at least 1/2 mile away riding west into the sun towards Meredith Bay.

Obviously the limits are too high. There would be no such thing as abruptly losing speed if there was no speed to begin with.

[Spinnfabs] But what if the captain was drinking? ~Doesn't count

His exact speed has not been determined and if the speed was unreasonable or not. ~Doesn't count. [/Spinnfabs]

Question Do we need a new law?

I hope that the injured woman thrown from the boat is quickly recovering from her thigh injury. It must have been a terrible experience. I wish all of them the best.



What is next? Will there be an outcry for minimum speed laws.
