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,
