Questions: If all vehicles are required to be registered and insured by a licensed driver, and the licensed driver is responsible for the vehicle, why do repeat drunk drivers have access to a vehicle?
>>>
Is it not a crime to provide a motor vehicle to a revoked driver?
>>>
Does law enforcement need to be more vigilant enforcing licensing/registration?
>>>
It seems an easy thing to determine if vehicle X, owned by revoked driver Y, at address Z, is being operated on public roads.
>>>
Would not enforcing the laws already in place would reduce the number of impaired drivers on public roadways.
>>>
Just an idea...

When it comes to outdoor air quality, tobacco smoke isn't even a blip on the chart.
>
I'm more concerned with the garbage truck leaving a smoke screen behind it that you can't even see thru, or the neighbors that burn trash and brush in their backyard even though we have curb pickup for both.
>
Then there is the mile high blanket of exhaust from infernal combustion circling the planet.

Nope, tobacco is not even a blip.

BunBun, my question exactly!

Why do "We The People" need to provide additional funding for grants to enforce the law?

Is overtime required to enforce the law?

It's time to take the checkbook away from the politicians.

This law is only 100 years overdue. We've been poisoning ourselves since the first tin/lead soldered connection.

Mercury, lead, cadmium, lithium, and plenty of others are all showing up in the leachate, and migrating to a faucet or drinking fountain near you.
>
Then there are those really nasty cell phone and other rechargeable batteries, or the radioactive americium source in your smoke alarms which has a half life of up to 8,000 years...
>
It doesn't take a great deal of foresight to know whatever we put ON the ground, or IN the ground will eventually end up in the drinking water.
>
Now we need to work on pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers.

Look into the future (100) years down the road. The races are gradually merging.
>>>
In the future, will your great, great, grand children care to calculate if they are .000625% German, Norwegian, Irish, etc...if they have never been in those countries?
>>>
Someday the bipartisan system of American government may even be abolished!
>>>
Then the politicians will have to work on issues instead of D vs R posturing.

The only constant is change.

Pity the child...another unwanted baby produced by an idiot, faced with alcohol and drug poisoning in utero, to produce another idiot.

Then "We The People" can support the unfortunate child.

How does this NOT qualify as child abuse?

Could we also have an ordinance to enforce traffic law and vehicle code in Milton?
50mph+ is common at Cty Y & High St, or Hwy 26 and Piggly.

I can list (5) vehicles in sight of my house that do not have a functional noise suppression system, (muffler), on their vehicle. One of them rips up my street at 5 on Sunday mornings...no way to sleep thru it on the only day I can sleep in.
>
If there isn't enough manpower for law enforcement in Milton, you could hire me part time.

I would be glad to help out :)

All this concern with burning a plant, when we're surrounded by engine exhaust, indoors or out.
>>>
We're all smoking and breathing 384 million gallons of gasoline a day, (2007), and 70% of that imported.
>>>
Cleaning up the air by going after tobacco is like looking for an elephant with a magnifying glass.
>>>
Now let the smokers have their smoke, outside, in peace.

(K)orea (I)nvades (A)merica...what happened to patriotism?
>>>
Choose to support American families, with American children, and American mortgages...and buy American (when you can).
>>>
Yes, it is increasingly difficult to find American made products, but American motor vehicles are still easy to find if one can read the label.
>>>
Yes, it is a global economy, an economy that is quite out of balance if we have 10% unemployment, 40% of the income of those of us that ARE working is consumed by taxes, and 40% of those taxes are going to Medicare.
>>>
It doesn't take a math major to see where this is going.
