Nope. I’m pointing out that drivers getting all high and mighty about other drivers is hypocritical bull****.

It’s not edgy but it is a result of being able to see what’s right in front of you.

And how you could possibly think public transportation and traffic fatalities are unrelated, well that actually is stupid.

Yes, I’m anti private automobile because the results are disastrous

They usually hit other drivers so they're not hitting anyone who doesn't deserve it. No biggie.

Take a typical MADD mother. Her son is killed by a drunk driver. Tragic. But it’s also true that her son was killed by a driver. Yet she continues to drive herself, unwilling and seemingly unable to question the insanity of the private automobile.

It’s easy to say let’s eliminate this thing I don’t do but if you REALLY care about the carnage inflicted on society by the automobile you should be campaigning for safe, free, accessible, convenient public transportation.
So basically your excuse for drunk driving is that it would have happened even if they weren't drunk? Because they were in a car either way? That's gotta be the dumbest thing I've ever read. I know you know better than that, man. I'd love for you to walk up to someone who lost a child because of a drunk driving accident and tell them "well, they would've died anyway because they were in a car." So yeah. I'm sorry but if you honestly believe this kind of bs that you seem to be spewing, i'll have to put you on ignore because honestly, the point your making is extremely offensive to those that have lost family members and friends due to drunk driving.

Totally forgot I had this picture. As a dad, it just doesn't get any better than this.

if anyone wants to help me and play doctor so i dont have to search online before my appointment. but my question to all is...

if ive always had vaccines for school when i was younger years ago. but im now needing proof and no way could find doctor and i get the shots for the vaccines now at age 29, will i break out and get measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella?

i believe i got these vaccines yearly at medical in the military too, so my doc might just sign the paper hopefully.

Just tell the doctor the truth and let them decide what’s best

They hear that everyday

Not what I said at all.

I lost a very close friend to sober driving btw.

What I’m saying is driving the main problem. Drunkenness just makes a bad thing worse.
