Heartbreaking and very upsetting story
To anyone that is a parent this would be very devasting Im a very proud father of my kids and when I read this story and saw the boys picture my heart broke Especially considering the guy that killed him had 16 prior arrests
Keep his family in your prayers http://www.kansascity.com/2010/03/29...tal-wreck.html |

Worked for me. Everyone that gets a DUI in Phoenix spends time in the tents. I've done 4 (3 in AZ, 1 in IA) field sobriety tests in my life, and passed each one. Only reason I was pulled over was because I drive fast and would leave the bar after my shift at 3 in the morning. And cops will tell you only bad people are on the road at that time. :P
BUT THE POINT is, I was so scared of having to spend a weekend in the tents, all the many times I was just too tore up to drive, someone else did. More tents and chain gangs!

I can understand if you were to step out of this specific example that people that have revoked licenses still have lives to live, but driving a car is not like breathing air, there are options to living your life without driving, difficult as they may be in this day in age, but living with those difficulties is suppose to be part of the penalty. If the penalty gets worse each time, and get to a point that jail time is involved when someone drives without a license and is caught 5x, 10x, 15x, whatever, then maybe even without a psycic we will get lucky and some 12 year old out there will get to see 13 just because we stopped letting a person treat a suspended license like it was something he could just pay (through fines) his way around. |

I'm sure the guy will be driving again in a few months.
This will be when I wish every city had themselves a Dexter. |

Everyone knows someone who has had their license taken away. Most of them do the right thing, which is walk, get a ride, or pay for taxi's. They certainly don't get high on PCP and hop into their car for the 4th time (that is known) in a year. |

Ya know, i kinda liked his idea about chopping off his dick, hands and feet. Then we wouldn't have to worry about him driving or reproducing.

There is a saying that goes something like this: "You can judge a society by how that society treats it's prisoners and criminals." How will history judge the US? Did we treat convicted criminals better then their victims? I don't believe it yet, but we are moving closer and closer..... |
