So you say, But it`s not any more ridiculous than killing three innocent people that he didn`t even know or have a grudge against.I guess you didn`t read all my post. Nobody forced him to drink . nobody forced him to drive. He did both of his own free will, and now three innocents are dead. I don`t understand your thinking about these murders and that`s what they are , regardless of how you try and cloak them in respectability, because he was drinking. If you kill you should be killed unless self-defence. Too bad it wasn`t members of your immediate family he offed. You would sing a different tune then. And what does the term redneck mean? If it means you had to do hard physical work outside all your life, then I qualify.If it`s supposed to mean something else, please define your meaning. Thank you, ed.ontario,kanada
