On the subject of drunk drivers, I become a regular neo-con. First offence, take away their car and sell it. Take away their license for a year. Second offense is jail time, the car gets sold, and no more driver's license.

And this assumes simple DUI. If they kill somebody, even on a first offense, it's murder, plain and simple.


I agree with you. It is hard for me to argue against ANY firm punishment for DUIs. If a state decided to put a drunk driver who kills someone in the electric chair (which will never happen), I'd find it difficult to argue against it.

Years ago, I dated a girl who had a huge DUI (something like double the legal limit) after we broke up. She somehow got her rich father to intervene, and she wound up getting a very light punishment. She flaunted to everyone how she beat the system, and it angered me so much that I confronted her, got in her face, and gave her an earful. I scared her so much that she wanted to call the cops, but she realized that the local cops were angry that she got off light.

My nasty moral streak covers drunk driving, smoking, child abuse...and people who don't like .NET. ;)
