-Caveat Lector-
MJ,
I admit I'm quite puzzled by your post. You say that I'm afraid of
freedom, however you have produced nothing to support that claim. What I am
afraid of is that more people, like my friend, will die because we all sit
by plucking daisies and turning our heads to something we can work together
to prevent. Also, you have said that a potential is not a crime. You're
right, but..(this may shock you)...DRUNK DRIVING IS!!!! It's illegal! You
can't even have an open container in the car with you. That's the issue.
And, again, I'll try and explain it to you in simple terms. I agree that if
what you do does not harm anyone but yourself, by all means do it until you
drop dead. That was not what I am saying. I'm saying that when your actions
have negative impacts on those around you it becomes a problem. So please,
everybody...stop thinking that I'm challenging freedom. I'm not! I'm only
saying that there have been far to many good people cut down by drunk
drivers. Something needs to be done. And, MJ, for you to even use the term
"discrimination" in the same sentence as drunk driving is downright
offensive.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
