I thought people were presumed innocent till proven guilty?

I guess that doesn't apply to things that the media can blow out of proportion and get alot of teardrop media play over.

I thought people were presumed innocent till proven guilty?

Indeed so, and the proposal is to punish those who have been found GUILTY of drunk driving three times in five years. Such a person is an alcoholic practically by definition; in fact, it is almost always the case that someone who has just *two* drunk driving convictions meets the definition of an alcoholic.

I guess that doesn't apply to things that the media can blow out of proportion and get alot of teardrop media play over.

That's pretty callous, pal. I hope you never lose someone you love to a drunk driver.

"I thought people were presumed innocent till proven guilty? "

This qualifies as one of the most outrageously ignorant statements ever posted on FR. The original thread post specified Three DWI CONVICTIONS in five years- How the hell can that be "presumed innocent"? You have a serious problem. How many DWI's have you chalked up?
