I find this very interesting, filosofically. The divers are within their right according to the laws of state, but in the wrong according to moral laws.

Any country should have an institution that can identify where law goes wrong (which will always be possible) and correct specific problems. Actually, I once heard a "judge" defined as exactly that: A person that does not /apply/ the law, but /interprets/ it.

But there is probably only one way to get a judge on the case: By starting a political party first...

OT/ the occupation of a lake

For 50 years there is a flooded quarry in my hometown. Generations of Lüneburgers used to go there for bathing and relaxing. My appartement is not even 100 meters from there. It is a very pupular place for the inhabitants of Lüneburg to go swimming or sun-bathing.

In times when the city needed money, they sold the lake to one single person for just "an apple and an egg". It is now leased by the lokal scuba diving club. Unfortunately they want to have the whole lake for thmeselves only. They surrounded the aerea with barbed wire to prevent people from going there but they had to remove it.

Now they imposed a fine of 50.000 Euro for each person who enters the area. What they currently do is, they call the police, and as there are always at least 200 people at the lake, they just pick out the first one they see (regardless the 199 others left) and take him to the police station. The scuba diving club said in the local paper that stepping on the area of the lake is "illigal violation of privacy". Nobody lives at the property - there is not even a house.

Today the local paper said that they will employ a security service to get the citizens of Lüneburg arrested, when they try to enjoy they lake. I live there for 36 years. I was born here. The lake is a part of the city and should be shared by ALL inhabitants, regardless if they are "only" bathers or something better.

I am just wondering that the brave scuba divers always park their f***ing cars on our private car parks...
