As illustration . . .

You have yet to deal with the issue of . . .

YOUR 5-7 closest loved ones . . .

crunched in a burning vehicle . . . trapped . . . taking 3-4 very painful hours to die of their injuries and burns . . .

God forbid . . .

Are you telling me you would STILL feel the same way about alcohol?

Yes, there are hypocrisies abounding in our era and lives.

Nevertheless, alcohol is super deadly on the highway.

I’m not for putting the rest of us in straight jackets to make the highways safer.

But something reasonable . . . would be reasonable compared to the deadly mayhem we have.

In the four corners area, the Dine/Navajos have a horrid time with alcohol. It’s kind of . . . bumper cars and . . . ROAD RAGE/Indy 500 all rolled into one.

It sounds like you are sooooooooooooooo extremely obsessive about one single illegal freedom—to drink alcohol to excess—as the supreme symbol of

AMERICAN FREEDOMS and way of life.

That’s real sweet.

Painful burning death and mayhem is now next to the flag and apple pie as the supreme symbols of AMERICAN FREEDOMS.

Guess I didn’t get that memo.

This is about civil liberties, not alcohol. They could institute the cheek-spreading policy just as easily, because someone somewhere has cause a car crash while transporting drugs in their rectum.

This idea is a ridiculous trampling of civil liberties, despite your previous experience with lowlife alcoholics who would drive. that certainly doesn't make up the vast majority of drivers and is DEFINITELY not a reason to proclaim everyone guilty.

Quit being a dope. This idea SUCKS.

LOL, more proof of your ignorance! It is nt illegal to drink alcohol, even to excess. Yes, it's now illegal to drive after doing so, but that's not what you said, and I don't think it's how you want things to be. I'd bet you wnt total prohibition based on your sad little experiences.

What if all your loved ones were crushed and destroyed by a sleepy ("non-drunk") driver?

Would that make you feel any better?
