except another layer of your personal freedom as a human being on this planet. Not to worry though. As long as you stay in line and just follow the lead you're given, it'll be Okay. What's that, a drop off or somethiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii...splat!

Since I have lost loved ones & good friends, to people who believe they have right to drink & drive.
You talk about giving up freedom, what about the freedoms of victims. There freedoms vanished the moment that a drinking driver got behind wheel of few thousand pound weapon.

And we all lost relatives who died fighting so we could have these rights. I'm not prepared to crap on everything they gave up, just to *bleep* them away like it meant nothing.

Why stop at drunk drivers? We might as well all give up DNA samples so they can test us for every rape and murder. Put a camera in our homes to protect kids from abusive parents. Or maybe you're ok with rape, murder, and child abuse?

This excuse to defend the stripping of our personal rights as law abiding citizens has gotten very old.

Defending the rights of dead victims is an excuse, since those who cause those deaths pretty well get slap on the wrist.
Meanwhile victims are still dead, because as :cuss: holes can't be bothered to call a cab.

I'm done with people defending drinking & driving.

If you don't think we should apply the same standard and all submit to DNA testing for rapes and murders, and putting cameras in all of our homes to protect kids from child abuse, does it mean you're defending rapists, murderers, and child abusers?

And I'm done with "alcohol was not a factor".... Then the idiot who killed my dad walks..

Just because the anti drunk driving lobby has taken over ... Next time MADD asks me to support them , I'ma gonna bitchslap them.

People get killed by stoopid people every day . But it doesn't matter any more UNLESS "alcohol is believed to be a factor" ...
