Take a typical MADD mother. Her son is killed by a drunk driver. Tragic. But it’s also true that her son was killed by a driver. Yet she continues to drive herself, unwilling and seemingly unable to question the insanity of the private automobile.

It’s easy to say let’s eliminate this thing I don’t do but if you REALLY care about the carnage inflicted on society by the automobile you should be campaigning for safe, free, accessible, convenient public transportation.
So basically your excuse for drunk driving is that it would have happened even if they weren't drunk? Because they were in a car either way? That's gotta be the dumbest thing I've ever read. I know you know better than that, man. I'd love for you to walk up to someone who lost a child because of a drunk driving accident and tell them "well, they would've died anyway because they were in a car." So yeah. I'm sorry but if you honestly believe this kind of bs that you seem to be spewing, i'll have to put you on ignore because honestly, the point your making is extremely offensive to those that have lost family members and friends due to drunk driving.
