You know law and response to it is always based on the attitude and enrolement of the citezenry.
I am seeing my member of parliament in two weeks and creating a storm about something.
I talk to the people around me about the situation and they are all furious but not one has picked up the phone. The just bend over and....
Sailors in the area might turn up and make their feelings known about this killer, because that is what he is. This woman could have been the loved one of many of us.
My attitude is stuff speedboats. They do not have any god given right to endanger others.
I have used Jet skis and love them. They are great fun. But I never buzz people having a quiet day and I always obey the speed laws. I have never been given the finger or had any other run in....why would I?
I have driven a lot of boats at night. It is a dangerous situation even at slow speeds. A powerful speedboat coming out of a fast turn and into another can be very flighty and if it gets away it is a hundred metres or two before it is back under sensible control.

The judge in this case needs to see what 50 miles an hour vs 5 miles an hour in the dark feels like. Someone might offer to give him a ride.....on both boats!

I am absolutely clear that police deserve our admiration, respect and help....until they see themslves even a little above the law. At that point they need jail and lots of it.
