Those that wish ill things on others for their past mistakes likely have skeletons in their own closet. And while the opinions are valid, probably shouldn't be skewering someone in public who's manning up and admitting they've been doing wrong in the past. You may have a right to say it, but to me you look like a cruel, redneck azzhole while doing so.
Anything that impairs your ability to think clearly is a danger to others, legal or not. I have no problem if you want to drink yourself stupid in your house, or smoke weed until your head pops while you lay on the couch and eat 10 bags of chips. But please DON'T do it where it can adversely affect others. And I do think that "impaired driving" should have heavier fines/penalties. The object is to save innocent lives. And by default, the impaired driver's, too. That said, while I'm admonishing the past sins of midnighter, I do wish him all the best in righting the ship and keeping it on course for a brighter future.

As a person who has seen the affects of drunk drivers I do not have any sypmathy for you.
My sister was hit by a drunk driver when she was 17 years old, unfortuntely the drunk driver died instantly and my sister was left to live a life less fortunate. After 37 surgeries to save her life, 3 mis-carriages in her older years and the scars from that tragic afternoon people like you don't deserve the life you have. While she struggles every day to just get out of bed, from the broken pelvis that really never recovered, broke both legs ( all her bones in both legs ) hips, back, ribs, both arms, jaw, eye sockets I guess she is really lucky to be alive. So please spare the rhetoric about the third DUI and losing your license and having to put your car in storage. You have a CHOICE each and everytime you drink, and then you have another CHOICE when you drink and DRIVE. Just imagine how you would feel if it was YOUR daughter, sister or Mother, Just saying..... |

That's what this thread is about.....I have got that help before it gets to that of being responsible for taking an innocent human being's life because of my selfish ways. I am in recovery and never intend to put alcohol or any other mind altering substance in my body. I also hope others out there can learn from this thread and from comments like yours that drunk driving is a selfish act where an individual doesn't love anyone and doesn't care what the outcome is of their choices, often resulting in someone else dieing. Sorry to hear about your best friend. I have taken the steps neccessary to never be that person like the one who did that to your friend. God bless

I think people should cut the OP some slack.
We can all agree that drink driving is incredibly stupid, irresponsible and criminal, and I'm pretty sure we'd get no argument from the OP on that. However the OP came clean with the Camaro5 community and is now (hopefully) on the road to recovery. I fail to see how berating him over how stupid and irresponsible his actions were are going to help him achieve this end. I think in situations like this, if you don't have anything nice to say...
