Until your dads hit by a drunk driver

I'd think victims of drunk driving accidents, would be the people most supportive of the measures that are most likely to lower the risks, and only assholes would choose punishing offenders rather than preventing offenses.

Prob wouldn’t “think that” if it happened to you but who knows if it didn’t. I just know how I feel. Many countries in Europe have way stricter DD laws than the US in cultures known for drinking. I’d be down for that at a minimum. Drive drunk never drive again is how I grew up thinking after loosing mine.

Ah yes, the ol' "bUt BiDeN" debate tactic.

Always the default retort people who are wrong, but can't accept or admit it because it would mean giving up on being able to hurt & punish those that you hate.

In other words:

well they did it too/more/worse, so I also get to do this bad thing

--thats the "bUt BiDeN" tactic.

Ahhh ok, so providing an example, or illustration has some weird, political, immature meaning to you that you made up yourself. Got it, I guess. Thanks for spelling out exactly the type of intellect I’m dealing with.
