Y'all be careful out there.

At least the prohibitionists are out of the closet.

One local story excerpt:

Most drivers who spoke with NEWSCHANNEL 5 were surprised to find out you can go to jail even if your blood alcohol level is below the legal limit. Some said they don’t think it’s right.

Police warn against buzz driving

I'll warn Grandpa not to partake of the communal wine this weekend...and Grandma to steer clear of the cough medicine.

I catch a buzz smelling the cork. Do they still have corks?

George Bailey should have been charged with a DUI.

And Clarence shouldn't have been able to "fix" it for him!

The only safe way.....unless you have minors in there-your own kids or others.

Thanks for the ping. Locally, MADD has decided to suspend their cab service program for this holiday season. I suppose they aren't to concerned with drunk driving.....

How much money do they spend on these worthless commercials now? Every high school has a hundred MADD meetings and announcements for students. By the time they get out of high school, if people don't know not to drive drunk, they probably don't speak English. If MADD spent just a quarter of the effort and money they blow on this feel-good DARE-like crap on putting disposable alcohol level sticks in bars to make sure people know they're heading for a DUI conviction and should sober up a little, or on providing every bar in a forty-mile radius of DUI convictions with a picture of the convicts along with a notice that they are alcoholics, there might be some actual effect.

Instead, it's this WCTU, "Just Say No" Part II b.s.

What a surprise. WCTU part II strikes again.

Well, that would damage their propaganda and revenue opportunities.

It's a racket.

The people advocating the laws are the people advocating the mandatory sentences are the people running the re-education camps are the people engaged in the counseling and testing are the people running the ignition interlock franchises are the people advocating the laws.

Nobody's noticed yet that it's a classic RICO case.
