Other countries will object as well. Their cargo ships would also be burdened to travel at 10 knots................

If they’re that worried about the whales, shouldn’t they ban driving pylons for wind turbines too?

Do the pylons more fast than the arbitrary 10 knots?

Does Congress have the balls to take back their law-making perogative from the unelected bureaucrats?

No. They like it this way so can shrug and act as though there is nothing they can do.

There's a slow train comin'.

That’s for killing whales.

No mention of all the whales etc etc etc being killed by the offshore Windmill junk installations...

How many whales are dying beczuse a boat goes 10.1 knots?

The left have really mastered their “if we can save just 1 (fill in the blank), then it’s worth it” tyranny

When they sold Bush’s boat, that was insider trading.

The Cutty Sark was faster than 10 knots. Better remove a few sails.

Maybe they should ban the construction of off shore wind turbines. That seems to kill more whales than anything.

Environmentalists come in 4 species:

Land

Sea

Air

Nuclear

They don’t communicate with each other or breed with each other.

They often work at cross purposes.

As a result, their actions often negate each other’s objectives.

See the California Dam Fiasco from last week, as a prime example...................
