“You only arrest for the purpose of dealing with a felony that’s committed, and I don’t count drunk driving as a felony.” That was former vice president Joe Biden last week, and the presidential contender announced a punishment for ICE agents who dare arrest illegals caught driving drunk.
“You change the culture by saying you are going to get fired,” Biden explained. “You are fired if, in fact, you do that.” That fell afoul of former ICE boss Tom Homan, who explained that according to current statues, any crime by an illegal is grounds for deportation. If Biden doesn’t like what ICE is doing, Homan told Fox News, “then he can change the law, but you cannot fire a law enforcement officer to enforcing the law that he took an oath to enforce, a law that was enacted by Congress.”
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Authority, “every day, almost 30 people die in drunk-driving crashes.” Those crashes claim more than 10,000 lives per year, and contribute to costs of $44 billion in 2010 alone. Many states prosecute drunk driving as a felony, particularly in cases of injury or death. Even so, presidential contender Biden doesn’t consider drunk driving a felony, and last week announced more good news for those illegally present in the United States.

“If drinking and driving while killing Americans was good enough for Ted Kennedy, then it’s good enough for us”.
Says the guy who tried to blame his first wife's and daughter's death on a drunk driver (who wasn't driving drunk).
More illegals and chronic alcoholic pandering.
We don’t HAVE to wait until illegal aliens harm or kill somebody before we remove them.
We should NOT give illegal aliens the opportunity.
BUILD THE WALL!
DEPORT THEM ALL!
They usually resort to, “Americans drink and drive, too!” Yep. So, WE DON’T NEED ANOTHER COUNTRY’S DRUNKS ON OUR ROADS! Damn right I’m shouting.
How friggin insane is it that this would even come up? This is same ludicrous belief system that has Europeans inviting rapists into their towns & homes.
Something about trespassers will be shot.
L8r
There goes the MADD vote...
Usually, it is the local police who arrest drunk drivers, not ICE.

You know, I always regarded Biden as weak minded nincompoop, and was not viscerally repelled by him apart from his politics and general lack of character. I was even amused at one point by him, and therefore, have no problem making him the butt of jokes.
But I have since learned two things about him that have changed me:
Biden's wife apparently was distracted and drove her car through a stop sign directly into the path of an oncoming tractor trailer (who was on the road with no stop sign) and got T-boned. He jackknifed and overturned his truck trying to avoid her, and was the first on the scene trying to administer first aid. He wasn't drinking was wasn't charged.
The driver's (Curtis C. Dunn) family said that even though he wasn't injured, he was traumatized by it for the rest of his life until he died in 1999. It was after that where Biden began to spout this story, saying his wife was killed by this truck driver who he characterized as "Drinking his lunch".
Even after his family heard it and protested, he never apologized. Here is another article from TownHall about it: Whoa: Did Joe Biden Falsely Smear the Truck Driver Involved in the Car Crash That Killed His First Wife and Daughter?
Biden is an evil, corrupt, mentally incompetent scumbag. How could he live with himself, slandering that man...probably only because it made a better story for him, and made him a sympathetic figure to gather votes? What happened to him, his wife, and his family is an utter tragedy, and I can see a man becoming unhinged at having his wife and child killed in an accident, but his slander of this man who could no longer defend himself is utterly despicable. He forfeited any sympathy I would have given him on that basis alone.
Yes. See my post above.
Great post.
Thank you.
Trying to preempt any arrest for felony DUI by Hunter Biden?
Joe is dumber than dog crap on a hot summer day, and smells like it to.
Thank you...I can forgive politicians being politicians, but there is something base, scurrilous, and just downright mean about slandering someone like that and knowing it isn’t true.
He is a disgusting human stain.
He's doing the same thing all over again with "drunk driving is not a crime". If his wife and daughter actually had been killed by a drunk driver, he would be in essence throwing their bodies under the bus in order to curry favor with the pro-illegal invasion crowd. He's a typical rat who will say or do anything to "be liked". He's been a liar all his life. I doubt that he has ever stated an outright true fact without embellishing it if making it up from whole cloth.
Thanks for your in depth post showing how Biden lied and destroyed this innocent man.
You’re welcome. It turns the stomach, doesn’t it?
