Hasn’t anyone ever tell this guy drinking and driving?
I’m so sick of drunk drivers, my empathy is towards innocent victims. The hell with the drunk driver. Let him think about what’s he’s done in a hospital bed.
You should be teaching seminars on” how to be perfect” ..
I wish all the perfect people like those who commented before me would run for office or at least offer a seminar so we all can learn how to be perfect.
