Boat-safety hypocrisy

How can officials in Lake and McHenry Counties, not to mention Daily Herald editors and executives, look themselves in the mirror and not see the hypocrisy of their character?

In Tuesday’s Herald, they’re touting the opening of a marijuana dispensary on the shore of Fox Lake where boaters can now buy marijuana from their boat, and in Wednesday’s Herald they reported the memorial naming of a patrol boat in the name of a little boy killed by a drunk boater who also had drugs in his system.

The laws are truly incredible, aren’t they?

I cannot believe the hypocrisy of both McHenry and Lake County officials. You people should be ashamed of yourselves.
