A designated driver takes on new meaning.

OK, let me just change the scenario...

This guy is out camping in the middle of nowhere, he doesn't plan on leaving for 2 more days. he is having a good time, fishing, drinking beer etc...Winds pickup, and wammo, massive wildfire moving fast...He is found dead two days later, burned to death. Keys were still in the ignition, he's behind the wheel burned to death.

There are literally thousand of other scenarios where people would be injured or killed if not able to start their vehicle immediately.

Of course you could come up with scenarios such as that.

So,

STACK UP THE REALLY HAPPENED EVENTS like that . . . ADD UP ALL THOSE DEATHS . . .

stack them against all the deaths due to alcohol.

Include in all those deaths due to alcohol—the 200 people CLOSEST to you.

Would your attitude be the same?

BTW, the straight jacket-lifestyle of the socialist, globalists IS ON THE WAY. It will be far worse than your worst fears about alcohol breathalizers.

ID/MONITORING SLAGS—chip implants WILL BE HERE. The only escape will be God’s first elevator up or death.

That is a certainty. No other option. Alcohol monitors will be a far lesser concern.

Alcoholism is a form of selfish rebellion/addiction. It is not a hallmark of walking in obedient submission to God’s best for our lives and families.

It may temporarily anesthetize from the pains of tyrannical globalism. But it will continue to wear off rather frequently and one again has to face the realities involved.

DENIAL is not a route to TRUE FREEDOM or any other thing wonderful.

All YOUR closest loved ones slowly burning to death in a heap of mangled metal courtesy of an alcoholic

is NOT a wonderful symbol equal to the Stars and Stripes, mom and apple pie.

I’m rather torn about alcohol monitoring ignition systems.

But faced with the massive deaths—often extremely excruciatingly painful deaths—UNNECESSARY DEATHS and pain . . . something needs to change and it will NOT change voluntarily—alcoholics are too selfish, brazen and live too wholesale in DENIAL.

In some respects, alcoholics are terrorists in behalf of selfishness.

Talk to some of their victims. See how much they support your perspective.

But, contrary to public perception, I’m not truly the FR village idiot. I have worked extensively in alcohol treatment with many dozens of alcoholics—100’s actually.

I know that there’s not a single thing I could say or write that will ever change your opinion.

. . . court ordered on the 9th DRUNK DRIVING ARREST . . . having mangled his own body and the bodies of others in past incidents . . .

First thing out of his mouth: I DON’T NEED TO BE HERE. I DON’T HAVE AN ALCOHOL PROBLEM.

DENIAL is not a good survival skill or attitude.
