Spunky little woman!

Doesn't work, you're here and from what you have said, you've reproduced.

Hey, Ger- I think the same could be said about you. "People who live in glass.........................................."

I think we can't blankly state we won't conduct a search without up front cash. Anyone can get into trouble, and when it comes right down to it, no amount of money is worth a human life. Having said that though, I think when you venture far enough into some wilderness areas, 'at your own risk' should mean just that.

Of course, anyway pretty hard to pass judgment while you haven't had a chance to talk to the guy. There's probably legitimate reasons for going out of bounds. A cerebral hemorrhage might be one!

I'm not the one that made the comment about letting people die, so your comment doesn't apply. Try again.






As for the OP, she should be billed. The taxpayers should not have to pay for her stupidity.

And if she doesn't have 30 thousand clams?

Whistler/Blackcomb, as a business, has various insurance policies that protect their patrons for a variety of accidents, etc.

Again, the individual that is the subject of the above article got into trouble outside the property/grounds of the resort.... For the most part, it doesn't matter if she went out purposefully or by accident. The resort is not responsible for the actions of those that break these rules.

On that note, I'll ask a related question (as per the title of the above article): What is the value of that person's life to themselves and/or family?

If these folks can't justify the expenditure, why would society feel any value?

Bottom line...........when someone is lost they have to be searched for and the nickels and dimes can be sorted out later.

Who says she has to pay it back all at once? There is no reason she can't pay a portion back over a few years or even many years. There has to be some sort of deterrent to (hopefully) prevent people from taking unnecessary risks that require the expense of search and rescue. Don't forget, in many rescue situations the personnel on the S&R teams are often being put at risk too. What are their lives worth?

Lotta blowjobs.

All good points!

She pays what she can, and then makes payments.


I didn't say pay up front, I said bill her.

If they opted to charge for search and rescue, would they be able to make it so only those who've willfully ignored the rules or whom went unprepared be charged? Could that be done legally?

It would be unfair to charge those who've suffered bad luck.

While she's to be admired for her spunk,

I beg your pardon?

What is it you want to be pardoned for?

For making such a filthy post. There might be children reading it.

He thinks you're being foul mouthed. He doesn't seem to have access to a dictionary or he doesn't know how to look one up online.

look the word up. It's your potty brain that has it backwards.
