This crime is such a matter of studpidity that if I had done it, I would expect to be locked up for the rest of my life. Let me tell you this, they are out of prison way too soon. I have witnessed the whining and tears displayed when they try to get sober and look for sympathy. There is none. It may be a disease but there is no excuse for driving drunk.

What the hell are these idiots thinking. A six year old and his family were robbed because some jerk was out having fun and made a stupid (expletive) choice. It is NOT EVER ok to drive drunk or buzzed, NOT EVER. We need some real laws that will take this seriously. This person does not deserve to see the light of day ever again and I also agree with putting pictures of the little guy up on all four walls as well. I'd also like to see him put into a room with the boys dad for 10 minutes. I'm so sick of hearing about these stories. The innocent seem to die while the irresponsible live.
Before all you people jump on here and tell me it is a disease and we should punish him with prison, shut up, don't even go down that road!

It is absolutly sick, he was a lovely boy. All in the car were related. The person who thought the driver was fleeing the other accident is absolutly correct. He didn't stop he just plowed into them.

Really. How hard is it to NOT get behind the wheel of a car when you are intoxicated? I will never understand this.
