I can not judge the man, and I will not attempt to do so. I am sorry that my post both offended you sensibilities and seemed to be an invite to a "hang 'em" discussion...such was not my intent.
This was just my poor attempt to bring to the fore something about drinking and driving that some folk here may not have thought about, that's all. If you still feel that this post should be about punishments for DUI and what I think about scumbuckets that do it, I will gladly delete it and open up another thread where we can discuss THAT subject.
Just let me know.

If I were you". My point is that if the government cared as much about drunk driving half as much as they do terrorism or school shootings, we could save 20,000 lives a year at a fraction of the cost that we blow on the TSA and public school beaureacracy.
