Travis Henry Tests Positive for Marijuana (Again)

Never said to not hold Little or anyone that drives under the influence accouontable, but the person that continues to serve someone despite their obvious impairment has some culpability.
wow, spoken like a true card carrying tort attorney. While we're at it, the companies making alcoholic beverages are culpable as well. They could simply make the stuff taste worse and fewer would drink it. Those cigarette companies are just killing smokers, too.

can we agree that alcohol impairs judgement? if so than you have to agree that someone under the influence's ability to know when they've had enough has also been impaired. At that point the sober individual that's serving it to them has to cut them off. Personal responsibility is, first & foremost, the issue, but the bartender has a responsibility as well. I guess we can agree to disagree.

ammunition, guns, knives, ODs, lions, alligators, auto accidents, falling pianos, rockets strapped to cars, and PacMan's entourage all kill people. Are we going to legislate all of them away?

so your answer, in this debate over responsibly serving alcohol, is to go completely off topic? that's what I love about message boards, in lieu of a cogent arguement, people will turn to insults (ala' Hat) or simply pull some stuff out of left field that in not germane to the converstaion.
 
well, you've certainly exposed the flaw in my arguement. Thank you, Hat, for your insight and that scathing retort.
 
I'll bet he took every bodies lunch money to.

I'd much rather have the guy who took everyone's lunch money playing Linebacker than the kid who went hungry in the cafeteria. Mother Theresa, after all, couldn't tackle at all.

By sharing the accountability, you are reducing Little's. The bartender isn't responsible for those people's deaths; neither is society, or Leonard's mother, or Tupac, or Nintendo. The guy who got drunk and wrecked his car into somebody else's is. By taking full responsibility from him, you are alleviating the full consequences from the guy who actually committed the act, and that is wrong.

If you want to stiffen penalties for people who get drunk and run over somebody, you'll get no argument from me. But don't try to blame somebody else--even in part--for the criminal actions taken by an adult.
 
If you took T.O. to a mental ward he would probable be the one cracking all the jokes. At the play ground at recess he was probably the one your kid had to pay his lunch money to. Now you want to take up for him. It's called respect. Most people don't know what that means. If a 100 yr old lady with a walker was in front of Ray Lewis he would probably push her out of the way. I'll bet he took every bodies lunch money to. It goes so much deeper than that. I'M no great player any more, but I was playing 3on3 and ny gut kept slamming it on me and laughing at me. I have had lots of surgeries, but the last time he slamed I undercut him, that was the end of his day. Things like this should happen more, then it might stop all this $%#$#@#@#@^^.

:ermm:

:no:

We can't have people being personally accountable for their actions and not offer them a few sacrificial scapegoats. :crazy:
