As if you need another reason not to drink and drive

Post by araby »

I used to babysit four boys when I was 13-15 years old. The oldest of the boys was killed this morning around 2am when he got into the car with three other guys, and the driver decided to do about 100mph leaving a night club, and wrapped his car around two poles, throwing Jason out of the back seat and killing another of the boys. My brother worked the accident =\

The driver is being charged with two counts of man slaughter of course.

Jason is the father of two children, 6 and 3. And he had a crush on me when he was 10, lol.

Anyway, it just sucks, I'm sick of my parents calling me with "who died." But it happens, it's just really sad when things like this don't HAVE to happen.

I really believe in stiffer penalties for drunk drivers. You get caught driving drunk, you can't drive...ever. Public transportation is pretty good in most places to present a viable alternative for getting around anyways. Well in Canada atleast.

This happened in my home town, and there the public transportation is called RTA and everyone jokingly calls it "Return to Africa" because, of course, the only people who ride it are black people. In my opinion, Zanchief makes a great point, especially in that town. You fuck up...ride the freaking bus.

Only on sundays, that is the only day they are allowed to come to town.

if you drink and drive and kill somebody , that to me is murder since you know that drunk driving is illegal and you chose to do it anyway
