I think it is outrageous to arrest anyone who has not done anything wrong.

You on the other hand apparently countenence the new Puritanism where things are evil and our rights are squashed.

We had a member who got caught driving over .08 4 times = never had an accident and lost his life for 25 years.

How is that justice.

Are you kidding? He may not have had an accident yet, but his conduct was still reckless and put other people’s lives at risk.

>>>>DWI is wrong. Legally, morally...there’s simply no justification for driving while impaired by drugs or alcohol. Period. I liken it to driving while talking on cell phones and running over someone. If you’re impaired in any way and kill someone, you’re at fault. Would you also condone airline pilots for flying while under the influence? How about brain surgeons?

>>>>No, not at all. I just use my common sense and know that it’s highly dangerous and when you drink and drive you take other people’s lives into your hands. Just because there’s been no accidents while DWI, that only means you’ve been lucky! And it’s not like there’s not sheer mountains of evidence!

>>>>Did he go through rehab? Or did he just decide laws don’t apply to him all the way to the point his freedom was less imporatant than drinking and driving?

BY FAR the stories I’ve heard is the man who’s been arrested over and over and finally kills someone and people are asking why wasn’t he locked up before he killed someone or a whole family!?

I’m a member of the VFW and have had a DWI btw...

4 DUI's? Hmmm guess they really should have waited for him to kill a family of 4 on their way home from the movies before throwing him in jail. That would be justice for him.

I have a GTO...I can handle it at 150mph on the interstate. Guess I should be allowed to drive as fast as I want since I can handle it...at least until I kill someone. Then you can punish me. Punish only actions...don't try to deter.

Please. Someone who has had 4 DUI's is an IDIOT and deserves to go to jail for life...simply because they don't GET IT.

Maybe I shouldn't call the cops on all these drunks I see weaving all over the road after they leave the cantina.
