As long as they are paper straws....Here is what I would do.....................I see someone in distress in 100 ft deep water. I motor over there and say, "Did you vote for Biden"...if they say yes I'll throw a few straws and motor awayI wish the GD boat would have exploded right next to the fag party....lolololNope. Their harassment prior to the emergency would have invoked the danger to the crew exception to the federal law.And you would have gone to federal prison.A boatload of bigots got a lesson in karma when they harassed folks for flying a pride flag. Their boat blew up and they had to be rescued by the folks they were trying to intimidate just moments before. The folks with the pride flag are much nicer than me, I would have just motored away.
Well, make that wish at your next birthday when you are blowing out the candles and let us know how it works out. In the mean time, I was just pointing out that there are exceptions to the duty to render assistance laws when it comes to boating, and the federal law specifically exempts people from that duty if to do so could present danger to the boat, passengers, or its crew.
If the OP wants to get like that, I can be brutal.
But the OP is a fudge packer anyway so...................l
