Pulled Over after Drinking and Driving

Aramike, face it - you have sinned against your fellow man, and thus should be flogged in the street. After that, other horrible things should happen to you - all because you fail to understand that while the LAW says your ok - and the LAW was put in place by SOCIETY - apparently those on here who see things differently are the ones whose thoughts really matter.....

Instead of beating up on this guy - why don't all of you who are so blasted outraged start putting forth some efforts to change the things in society you don't like?

Its called a government "OF the People, BY the People, FOR the People" for a reason. Unfortunately - its easier apparently to get on here and fuss at one guy who did something you don't agree with, than it is to pick up the phone and call a local organization of MADD or SADD or similiar and ask what you can do to help. Its easier to berate a fellow community member WHO DID NOTHING WRONG UNDER THE LAW - that it is to write a letter to your State Congressman or Governor and be a voice to make things better.

Until you folks get a grip on respecting the law - regardless of whether or not you agree with it - you have no hope of doing anything positive. By respecting the law - which Aramike did - you can also exert influence on that law to change it to what you think is more appropriate.

Or - in other words - quit your fussin, get of your arses and act if you really give a damn.

Very succinct and right on the money. I appreciate it.
