To those who were bemused by two innocent people being killed by a drunk driver:
-Rob: 22 years is NOT ENOUGH time to serve !
That perp will be out & ALIVE in 22 years. Will Mr Mrs. Reed be alive in 22 years ?
-LastBat: Understand this: unless you have tough, iron-clad laws, and revocation of bars' licenses, the next bar will still serve the drinker
-Ralph: I'll make this simple.....-you don't make sense
Your "skin" comment has no connection with
the fact that 2 people are dead at the hands of another drunk driver
What Needs To Be Done:
-A major public program of education advising all that if you drive drunk and hurt someone or worse, you WILL go to jail for a minimum of ___ years. No parole, no plea bargains
If that means you lose your home, your job, your wife, etc, so be it
People will learn by example
Otherwise, every morning when you open a newspaper, or turn-on the radio or TV you'll continue to hear about this carnage
It can stop.
Remember (eg) how incredible it seemed when the law was first passed that smoking would no longer be allowed in restaurants & bars
Everyone thought, this will NEVER work
But with a little "pain" it DID work!
Plus, anyone caught DWI/DUI and not a legal citizen of the USA will be deported immediately, despite any of the above; wife, home, children, etc
Maybe they wouldn't have killed anyone if they WEREN'T here to start with
Sorry, I have no preconvictions against illegal aliens, or as a famous NJ Senator (who should re-retire already) calls them, "undocumented immigrants"....-that's like calling a drug dealer, and "unlicensed pharmacist" (!), but many times; too many times, when I see, or read the names of the offenders, they appear to be from (shall we say) third world countries
I say America FIRST to stop this carnage
I just pray someone is listening
