What was that?
Drunk driving kills more than 13,000 Americans a year - that's one every 39 minutes.

Back on the cars thing again?
Guess what drunk driving is not legal...we pass laws to prevent it.
- They're not saving lives though are they? Just increasing incarceration ratesalbums
- Not sure what you mean, of course it saves livesqoob
- @albums,
DUI deaths are down since the Min Age Drinking Act of 1984. Thus, lives are saved.waterhouse

Having lost a person in my life who was killed by a drunk driver, none of anyone's insults & degrading statements will ever convince me that a gun is more dangerous than a car.

Conversation over?

The point is that here are severe penalties for drunk driving. We are never going to be able to stop it completely, but I don't think anyone can really argue that the laws don't help.
If there was an "alcohol rights" equivalent of the NRA, they would be trying to water these restrictions down.

qoob's right
Yurimon's calls for anarchy are a minority view. It's that simple.
Stay angry, albums et al. Your dreams are out of reach.- I dont know what your talking about your mind seems to make shit up.yurimon

murderers murder, guns only go boom.

I like how all the anti-gun people only attack the gun, like removing it will solve the problem... who cares if it's a knife, gun, or swizzle sticks they attack with?

the absolutionist point so many take on this idea is fucking stupid and is the real reason the country gets nowhere in this debate.
throughout the history of the world (but we'll concentrate on america), we've had to adjust course for the cause of the greater good.
would banning assault rifles, or even guns altogether, in america solve any problems completely? of course not. there are far more issues at stake in a complex combination of media, psychology, civil liberties and discourse.
but let's not forget the US constitution for a period of time used to count african americans / former slaves as three fifths of a person. was changing that, and allowing blacks the full right to vote and then, you know, other obvious human rights, going to solve the problem of racism in america? certainly not. it still hasn't. but we're getting there, slowly but surely.
the same way the 3/5ths compromise was three steps forward, two steps back in the idea of human rights and safety, so would realizing that the second amendment never considered ar-15s in the populace.
it's a large problem, but to ignore it and just say "we need our guns" will never solve anything (nor will simply adding more guns to the equation). the liberals who think eliminating the second amendment will suddenly make problems go away are just as dumb as those who think standing armed in a crowd is a safe public measure.
in the end, all we'll be left with tragedy if nobody's allowed to compromise.

You posted a picture of a Christmas tree made from guns and then went on to make a note on your post saying "Merry Christmas kids"
You are an awful person.
