I'm an extremist because I believe that DUI laws are wrong.
It's already a crime to cause bodily harm or property damage.
But when you start trying to criminalize the potential to cause harm, well that's the same broken logic that the gun grabbers are currently operating on.
every non-kyc bitcoiner can be labeled as financial terrorist in many big jurisdictions soon ...
My take: filing taxes is a personal responsibility and not doing it us illegal. It should be up to the appropriate agencies to investigate and up to the individual to face consequences if they don’t. But instead they try to structure it into everything removing the personal responsibility and the consequences, and the whole lesson of personal responsibility gets removed, which is probably why taxes exist in the first place.
I think a good study would be tipping and how most people still do it in the states despite it not being required.
Not endorsing the behavior or saying that you should, (you seriously should not!) but the truth is that the vast majority of times drunk drivers make it to where they're going without causing an accident.
It’s a risk reward trade off, most people who drive with alcohol in their system will never get caught (or shouldn’t unless they live in a surveillance state) if they are capable drivers
But the risk of not ear marking it as an inherently risky action may be worse than the alternative
It's like saying that speeding or wreckless driving are not a crime. You are endangering everyone else on the roadway, exponentially increasing the risk of property damage and physical harm. But at the end of the day it is the states or a private companies road and they are free to make the rules they see fit. If you can find a private track that will allow you to drink and drive go for it.
Speeding is not a crime. When I go in to pay a speeding ticket I say "hi, I'm here to pay my getting there faster tax."
"Speeding is not a crime" Thanks for confirming that you are not a serious person who wishes to put forward a serious argument.
Have a nice day! Please don't drink and drive...
In many places, most of USA I think, speeding is a civil offense not a criminal offense. DWI is a criminal offense.
Depends on how fast you're going. Above a certain speed it's reckless driving which is a misdemeanor offense.
So, if it's not reckless or endangering to speed just a little bit, then the law is a bunch of bs.
it's just a sin tax.
I've lived all over the USA and speed limits vary a lot as does the behavior of drivers.
Where I live now all the speed limits are 10-20 mph slower than down in Texas for example. Modem cars handle high speeds very well. During the summer to here you could safely drive these roads much faster than the posted speed limit. But it also snows up here. During the winter it would often actually be quite reckless to drive the posted speed limit because of the slippery road conditions.
Only logical argument.
I think if given the choice, most of us would rather stop the idiots before they run over our loved one, not punish them after.
Statistically drunk people cause way more accidents. I care more about the people they can kill than their personal freedom to be retarded.
You're sharing infrastructure. It's only a freedom debate when it's intrusive on privacy/ surveillance.
I would be supportive of field sobriety tests assessing motor skills but not of a strict BAC limit.

That's what I hear lol
No, the equivalent would be to suggest we should take away cars because idiot drivers use them to kill people.
Like for like, this would be akin to saying drunk people should not play with guns. That's also sensible.
