Wow.

Americans are whistling down to the concentration camps.

Saying drunk-driving should be legal is not the same thing as saying people should drive drunk.

No victim. No crime.

States rights, DUmbass.

Who wants to live in North Korea?

You may actually have some valid points rolling around in your head, but it's such a shame you come off as an insufferable twat.

Why should the patriots leave? Why don't the Fascists and Commies get out?

Did the State Department confiscate your passport?

No victim, no crime?  :rotf:  Really?  Define "victim".

 I'd say that Utah probably set their BAC at .05, as at that level, nystagmus typically occurs around 45 degrees.   

Brush up on SFSTs and HGNs,  what law enforcement are looking for in said sobriety tests, and then ask yourself if you want a person who fails these basic tests out driving among the general population.   I'd say that Utah probably set their BAC at .05, as at that level, nystagmus typically occurs around 45 degrees.   

I happen to believe DUI laws are common sense laws for those that don't possess any common sense themselves.  You can always buy a handheld breathalyzer, which are reasonably accurate at telling you when you shouldn't be driving.  Or just cut out the middleman, and take a cab.

I can't say I agree totally with DUI checkpoints, as I don't believe them to be very effective.  Perhaps as a deterrent, maybe.

Does anyone get the feeling that if the elites decreed that everyone must have their thumbs amputated, Americans would agree that the law makes sense and must be obeyed?

Good men don't need laws.

Bad men won't obey laws.

One wonders if the real purpose of this law is to help the state meet their private prison quotas.
