If that is your point, its not a very good one.

Who described the children at these camps as being "underprivileged inner city campers"? Did I miss that, or did you make it up.

And who posted about camp children being "run down by big bad GFBL boat's"? Did I miss that as well, or did you make it up.

I have said that camps have had to keep their boats in at times. And that the New Hampshire Camp Directors Association supports HB847.

However if we are talking about the safety of a child in a kayak, I don't think the financial situation of the child's parents makes any difference at all. And it is rather telling of your motives that you to bring it up.
