King County, Washington, is lead by absolutely ninnies. Worst part is, they represent the 'progressive' (oppressive/fascist) population.

Now - everybody who swims, floats, etc, on ANY river in the county must do so wearing a life-vest.

SEATTLE (AP) - A divided King County Council has passed a measure to require all swimmers, floaters and boaters on the county's rivers to wear life vests.
This will change, eventually, to all lakes, too. Then, all swimming pools. eventually? Bathtubs.
