    The penalty for drunk driving is death.

    The penalty for murder is prison.

    You seem ok with this setup.

      what do you have issues with? i presume this from your final statement.

      please elaborate?

      Are you saying Drunk Driving is okay in any way shape, form or fashion?

      Murder shouldn’t be punished with Prison time?

      I’m not sure where our disconnect is.

                    For sure, thank you. It’s been a wild ride. finally saved enough to move into a starter home, we are trying for a child.

                    What happiness do you have in your life? hobbies? career? 8 billion people mean there are 8 billion ways to live, and i would genuinely benefit as a person if you had anything to share. The internet of things has us crossing paths when at any other time, we would both have existed and died without realizing the other lived at all. truly a wonderful time to be alive, despite humanity’s consistent pitfalls.

            Less than the penalty for murder. More than the penalty for shop lifting. Maybe exactly the same as the penalty for reckless endangerment.

            But I can say with certainty that being shot without a trial is not an acceptable penalty.

            Even if the punishment were death, the average fucking citizen is not goddamn judge jury and executioner.

            The toxicology PROVED he was NOT under the influence, which is a perfect example of WHY vigilante murder is unacceptable. Innocent until proven guilty, you piece of shit.

        I believe it has to do with the weights of the punishments.

        Although, I will remain neutral in the argument. Drunk driving has the high chance for manslaughter, so could be considered equivalent to attempting murder. However, murder is murder, and should have a larger punishment than chance of murder.

        Of course, in the grand scheme of things, we have no way of preventing the drunk driver’s death because it was “more of a punishment”, for the obvious reason that it already happened.

        In other words, a dickhead is dead and there’s no changing it, so no need to argue about “it not being equal”
