legislate where the numbers are
Every year there are nearly 3500 drowning deaths in the USA (not including boating incidents). Less than 1% of these were wearing PFD's. In fact More children under the age of 5 are drowned in bathtubs, buckets and toilets than people are killed in boating accidents.Residential swimming pools seems to be the biggest killer. I suggest we remove all swimming pools from the politicians back yards and favorite resorts and that should substantially increase our safety.Sorry!!!! I subscribe to Darwin on this subject. Natural selection will take care of the problem. Not Legislation.Ward
