NORTH PLATTE, Neb. — A North Platte man has been sentenced to a year in jail for being drunk when he drove his lawn mower on a city street on his way to a liquor store.

Sorry about that devolve, looks like it’s 2.9mgs!! I found it on aesopsretreat.com and laughed out loud.
I just double posted on the other thread and someone else did too. It’s taking forever for me to post something.
Thanks for that post, sunshine. You must be a joy to sit next to in a bar. No wonder you’re a Browns fan.
I didn’t know George Jones lived in North Platte.
“No wonder you’re a Browns fan.”
Really? That’s all you have?
Does your mom know you’re using her computer? With a wit like that, I’d imagine you to be more suited to crayola and paper.
“Sod off arseportal. So you want to start to pick & choose what laws are enforced and what ones aren’t?”
Just looking for a little common sense and discretion. Apparently those are things that escape you.
Carry on, comrade.
>>>Just looking for a little common sense and discretion. Apparently those are things that escape you.
No, those things escape YOU dolt.
Common sense is following the law. You seem to not to want to do that.
Whatever, schmuck.
“Common sense is following the law. You seem to not to want to do that.”
Apparently you’re quite selective with rules. Did you read the FR posting rules? Ad hominem, (that’s personal attacks), attacks are expressly forbidden. Yet you choose to ignore that. Calling me a “dolt” and a “schmuck” you should be banned? Right?
That’s the problem with authoritarian types. They like strict enforcement of the rules, until it applies to them.
So you’re saying all laws are good? The government is always right? So every single law is well crafted, and any infraction should be punished?
Once again, you display flawed logic, at best.
Nice deflection... Im not the one advocating an unequal enforcement of DUI laws based on the type of vehicle driven - you are. Get over yourself.
“Nice deflection... Im not the one advocating an unequal enforcement of DUI laws based on the type of vehicle driven - you are. Get over yourself.”
Rather than address my points, you dismiss it all as deflection. I see you won’t be moved. Blind adherence to the law is what you desire.
If that riding mower could go faster than 10mph, I’d consider it more of a hazard. Drunk in public is a more reasonable charge than DUI for a riding mower. Crossing the street drunk is every bit as dangerous as a riding mower.
So, if someone is drunk and in a motorized wheel chair, that’s DUI?
Common sense tends to escape authoritarians. Since you are entrenched, and unable to consider opposing viewpoints, I’ll end with this post.
He could have let go...
Yep, it looks like something made up for “Funny Home Videos”. I’ll probably delete it as it’s a huge file and not much use.
