Not a fan of long prison sentences and The problem is not the lack of punishment of drivers? What kind of crap is that? Sorry Robert, a human life is worth much more than a one year jail sentence.
I remember the good old days as well and I miss them as well. I cry thinking about all the kids who've been kidnapped and killed by people who've thumbed their nose up at the system because WE let them.
These "drivers sit in isolated luxury surrounded by air conditioning, blasting stereos, and cell phones, all while they eat their cheeseburgers and get a blow job." have no respect for human life because people like you aren't fans of long prison sentences. So what if "People are angry, stressed, fat and full of cholesterol and high blood pressure, and very self-indulgent. Everyone thinks its THEIR road, THEIR time, THEIR life that is most important." People today may be "islands, or so we think" but they are still responsible for their actions!!! I don't care how someone killed somebody, THEY KILLED SOMEBODY AND NEED TO BE PUNISHED!!! Make 'em feel the pain everyday. When their sentence is completed, then treat them with the respect they've earned by doing their time. And I mean not treat them like a pariah by using a parolee designation. Treat them as regular citizens again with full priviledges.
This touchy, feely crap is how we have gotten here. There is no respect for a reason. Because it needs to be taught by respectful parents who teach their kids to respect everything. Respect begets respect. I don't respect people who don't respect me.
Sorry for the flame, but you really hit a sore spot with me.
