[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quite a few supporters for Parisa refusing to allow themselves to be intimidated by the ugly mob:

Fortunately some people still believe in the rule of law. [/quote]

I do too. So, the next time a "teen" drunk driver hits someone, I hope it's not me but you.[/quote]

Now we’ve gone beyond hints of violence by the vigilantes. [/quote]

That’s absurd.  Hoping that the consequences of soft-of-crime policies fall on the supporters of those policies, rather than the public at large, is just sensible.  [/quote]

PP is wishing harm on the other PP. Disgusting.

Those of us who don’t support these slap on the wrist consequences for a dangerous driver simply wish there was a way to opt ourselves out of the risk of being on the road with him in the near(ish) future. If you’re willing to accept the risk of sharing the road with a repeat DUI offenders (before the age of 18 at that) then you assume the risk. But personally I’d rather see people like this spend a decade in prison and lose their license for longer, if not life. The safety of innocent people, including young people with their lives ahead of them like Braylon, is of much greater importance than the freedom/privilege to drive of someone who has made repeated poor choices.

And it’s not just this driver. It’s all the recidivist DUI offenders/drivers who engage in highly reckless behavior (like speeding 100 mph) that I feel this way about.

As a liberal, I find it really strange how it’s acceptable (encouraged even) to want strict regulation of guns and greater consequences to keep them out of the hands of criminals. But put a criminal behind the wheel of a car, which can also cause death and maiming, and we’re all about giving them multiple chances? Sorry, but I have no empathy toward people who make choices that senselessly kill others. [/quote]
