I happen to agree with his evaluation of people who own and ride "personal watercraft". In general, a bunch of simple-minded jerks.

There is nothing sporting — athletic, physically demanding — about riding any machine anywhere

Hmm not a racing fan and has never participated I see. Probably drives a Prius.

Using Kline's expletives-should-be-deleted logic, internal combustion machines ON-road ought to be outlawed.

I hate to think what he would like to do legislatively to those infernal flying machines.

Okay, Senator: I nominate you to lead the new, statewide, on-and-off-road horse poop clean up detail.

"Please circulate this to all motorized sports enthusiasts, so they can remember never to vote for me.

Adam Kline"

This email is a fraud. No self-serving, mendacious reprobate RAT politician would ever put those words in writing.

Ah yes. His name is also on Senate Joint Memorial 8016. It calls for Bush's impeachment.

...so they can remember never to vote for me.

This clown is on cloud 43 and climbing, is ambulance chasing ACLU scum, but I am more then impressed with any politician who speaks his mind in an honest fashion regadless of the consequences including the inevitable loss of incumbancyor.

Hands down it beats the 3 faced, two sided flip floppin hypocritical special interest chasing turds we usually have to deal with.

I hate to say it, but I kind of agree with the guy. As an avid mountain biker, I've seen first hand the difficulty we have keeping motorized vehicles off local trails, and it's left me little sympathy for dirt bikes and four wheelers.

Nothing sporting , athletic, or physically demanding here? Nickey Hayden would certainly disagree.

Kline takes pride in ignorance. Fool.

BTTT I am really glad to see this getting some daylight. I have been doing almost nothing but fighting SB5544 for the last month. I was at the public hearing on February 2, and have been continually writing and calling the various sponsors and committee members, including my senator, Derek Kilmer, who voted for it after telling anyone who asked that he was going to vote against it as it singled out ORVs for punitive fines up to $800, PLUS attorney fees for the vigilante - er, citizen who sues the ORV rider for being "audible", while ignoring all other sources of noise pollution.

That's right, if anyone can hear you, they can sue you. You do not have to be doing anything illegal, you do not have to be riding on private property, you do not have to have a bike louder than the old standards (105db 20 inches from the tailpipe) or the new one (96db).

All you have to be is "plainley audible" 10 ft from or inside any residence (not neccesarily yours), or louder than 45db (the sound of grass growing) 10 ft from the property line.

The only people who voted PRO were WA state employees, and one futurewise lobbyist. SB 5544's own fiscal notes prove there were ZERO infractions for ORV noise in 2006.

This bill is designed for one thing only, and that is to shut down offroad motorized recreation altogether in this state.

I'll lay the whole thing out in the coming days, as I was just about to ask my FRiends for help with this anyways, and try to get Kirby to help.

Riding singletrack forest in this state is one of the most incredible experience one can have.

It's a family sport, it's how I raised my son, which many of you know.

There's no opportunities for drugs, graffitti, theft, sloth, video games, gangs, etc. out there.

Just good clean, muddy, extremely physical intense fun.

The ORV community is, as a rule, slow to catch on. They are typically apolitical. This is their leisure activity, no one wants to get in a big hassle over camping and riding perfectly legal ORVs in a perfectly conscientious manner, on trails that have been around since they were toddlers.

They just want to get out of the city and enjoy the tiny fraction of forest trails still left to them, which are typically DNR managed trust lands, or glorified tree farms.

There's an ORV rally at the capitol campus set for the 9th of March, but much more needs to be done to stop this, it's too far along.

As expected, 100% of the senate and house sponsors are rats. One R senator, McClasin, caved and voted with them, after telling me directly at the public hearing that he wouldn't.

More later, I got a party to get ready!
