I was checking out some state news today and ran across this little gem of a news article. What do you guys think? Sounds a bit harsh or completely within reason? You be the judge. I am thinking it is on the harsh side. Public intoxication maybe but a DUI?
This guys automobile insurance is going to go up significantly not to mention he will most probably have to have a breathalyzer installed on his vehicle at his own expense which he will have to blow into everytime he drives his car for a year and 3 days in jail I think it is if convicted if it is his 1st offense. All because of a slow float down the Chena river on a hot sunny day while tossing back some brewski's or whatever he was drinking.His blood alchohol level was pretty high. http://newsminer.com/bookmark/19659421-Jun...-in-Chena-River |

Another logical explanation..... "the man" likes writing ridiculous tickets to make money off of the "working joe", every time we use our "freedom" to have fun in this country.
The only logical explanation I can think of is that law enforcement was probably worried that he would end up in a dangerous situation where the Coast Guard would have to use a helicopter and possibly risk their lives to save him. I highly doubt that is the case. Even though he did break the law, I think he should only get a slap on the wrist. According to the article, he's only been charged, and hasn't been convicted yet. We'll see how this turns out -------------------- Check out my awesome Nintendo Cover-band, EMULATOR!! http://www.reverbnation.com/emulator Now.....go practice!! |
