Good grief. They won't seal the border, won't execute the murderers, treat us like cattle in airports, but want to have the cops chasing people for a few beers. Talk about fanaticism...

I'm an ex-drunk who sobered up twenty one years ago. I work with men who are sentenced for DUI in a prison for substance abusers.

The other day I interviewed a young man born in 1992. Eighteen years old, and the judge sentenced him to hard time for a first offense with methamphetamine. This is a nice kid. Most of them are. Our society is upside down.

9 times out of 10 law enforcement is a euphemism for tax collection.

In my (not so) humble opinion, any law based on an arbitrary number is defacto immoral - the focus ought be on safety and smooth flow.

Of course, there isn’t any money to be made with that, so it’ll never happen stateside.
