“When it became obvious you had no intention of researching the matter, I simply did it for you. Yet you still continue to refer to a lifejacket/life preserver as a bouyancy vest.”
Nah, you just assumed that I didn’t know the difference, and that there are only case of people drowning wearing life vests, while in fact there are plenty of cases of people drowning wearing buoyancy vests as well. You might decide to pretend they don’t exist, but that’s not my problem.
Communicating with you using the english language is becoming impossible because you are the most slippery, weasel-wordsmith I’ve ever encountered on FR. I’ve had more success nailing jello to the wall than I have in trying to explain to you the difference between a bounancy vest and a life jacket/preserver.
A bouyancyvest simply assist the wearer to remain bouyant and conserve energy. It’s a device worn by people who engage in watersports, and if they should become unconscious for any reason, they can drown, because the vest doesn’t prevent their heads from tipping over into the water.
A lifejacket/preserver tips the body on its back, and prevents the head from touching the water. Even unconscious, the wearer’s head is OUT OF THE WATER.
You’ve either never worn one or the other, are too lazy to find out the difference, or you’re so invested in an agenda, you’re blind and deaf.
Now go and talk to someone else, before the Mods pull the thread because you are stirring the pot.
