Reducing the limit any further doesn't mean much....usually a genuine "drunk driver" is way over either number. Changing the rule from DWI to DUI already made it a catch all. Suspending license for super long periods of time (for many infractions) is ludicris (not the rapper) since they will simply drive anyway and take their chances. Making all laws mandatory is good for some things but can be a little dangerous for most......
I could NOT agree more with Cambridge.....Change needs to start somewhere....of course we cannot do too much about what WAS, but maybe we can change what happens in the future. I will , for sure, not ever even consider voting for any teabagger or coward democrat who voted against.....
Betram making a statement like that has to go on record of one of the dumbest ass statements he has ever made. Of course this isn't his first rodeo. (no pun). Presently, local gambling money is being drained out of the Valley with folks (mostly seniors) traveling all over three States. The majority of that cash will stay here once they do not have to travel. Folks in Boardman don't shop at the Giant Eagle in Pittsburgh........
Have to agree with some other posters....if this person (or any other person) was/is that civic minded, he would take his pension and accept being "re-hired" at 50 or60% of his current salary, and no fringes since he will no longer need them....
Time was when there were apprentice programs, wages at a lower rate until you became a journeyman in whatever trade or field. Aside from the fact that none of it was very rewarding, today's employers expect folks to be born with those abilities since they are not willing to pony up any money for training programs.........
Fattynskinny realy came up with a super dumb post (plus a couple of others). The Two young men were charged with RAPE....that is what was before the court. Underage drinking, where were any parents, child endangering, texting while driving, overtime parking, jaywalking, had NOTHING to do with the matter before the court. Some jerks always want to victimize the victim....
Not real sure what "change" some are expecting....Keep in mind that all of the current Cardinals (the folks who do the actual voting) were either appointed by Benedict or the previous John Paul. If anyone is waiting for all Catholics to become Protestants or Islam, don't hold your breath........
Or they can just forgeddaboutit and let the gangbangers completely take over. If the attitiude of some was the norm, we would all still be on Plymouth Rock......
Proposed OVI law change not an easy sell
