I always thought that if you hit someone whilst DUI you should be done for murder or attempted murder depending on the outcome and punished accordingly. I do not understand people who would drive a car after drinking a skinful.

I don't drive, but I don't even cycle after more than a few pints.

I'm so sorry, Emperor

Was this at home in Mass or in Collegeville? If the latter, hell I may have known them too

Also important: Offer to be a DD!

It was in Mass.
The tough thing about this is that it is such a small city... All the kids know all the other kids. There truly are no "wallflowers".
What a [f]ucking jerk

Simmilar event happened in southern Croatia, not long ago. A 18 year old drove too fast and killed two girls on a zebra (where pedestrians cross the road). He was driving his new BMW (daddy bought for his 18 birthday) 50 km/h above the limit. He wasnt drunk, but he had a previous record of speeding and other offenses, like driving without licence, which he couldnt own since he was under 18. Five or six times he got fined but since his daddy is rich he just payed the fines and continued to drive illegaly.

And now two 16 year old girls are dead

He got 2,5 years of juvenile jail. Too little or too much who am I to say

The problem is once you're drunk, you're not competent to make the decision not to drive. That's why something needs to be done beforehand, such as lock boxes for car keys and having to pass a breathilyzers to get your keys back. Of course, jerks would just carry a spare set of keys.

Near to the door, he paused to stand
As he took his class ring off her hand
All who were watching did not speak
As a silent tear ran down his cheek
And through his mind the memories ran
Of the moments they walked ran in the sand
hand in hand
But now her eyes were so terrible cold
For he would never again have her to hold
They watched in silence as he bent near
And whispered the words "I LOVE YOU" in her ear
He touched her face and started to cry
As he put on his ring and wanted to die
And just then the wind began to blow
As they lowered her casket into the snow
This is what happens to man alive
When friends let friends drink and drive

Two were hit, a guy and a girl. The girl who was hit was taken off life support tonight. She was 15 years old.

It's so horrible. This is the equivalent of an atomic bomb as far as our community goes.

I dont hide the key away from me when I drink, but my rule of thumb is to not drive anytime within 6 hours if i do. My not-so-much a friend, but a close associate was dead when the drunk and drove. I hear his body was impaled to some pole and they had to yank him out.

the stepfather of a friend of mine has been to prison twice for drunk driving, including once for killing his girlfriend, and yet still does it. why can't people just pay for taxi's?
