DRUNK DRIVERS KILL THOUSANDS EACH YEAR… BUT NO DUI REGISTRIES, Why Not?

Each year, thousands of people, Men, Women, Children are killed by Drunk Drivers. The recidivism rate is very high. How do I know this, because the following exerpt is from their report:

National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Department of Transportation
Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, SAMHSA

The report reads as follows……

In spite of the decreasing prevalence of DUI, it remains a major alcohol-related
problem in the United States and the leading cause of death for persons between
the ages of 1 and 24. The extent of the problem is illustrated by the following
data:

o Of the 41,967 persons killed in traffic crashes in 1997, 16,189 (39 percent)
died in alcohol-related crashes. This translates into one alcohol-related death
every 32 minutes during 1997.

o An additional 327,000 persons (about 10 percent of all those injured in
crashes) received their injuries in alcohol-related crashes.

o At some point in their lives, three in every 10 Americans will be involved in
an alcohol-related crash.

o About 1.5 million people were arrested in 1996 for driving under the influence
(DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI).

Drunk driving recidivism rates are high: approximately one-third of drivers
arrested or convicted of DWI each year are repeat offenders. A 1994 study
published in the New England Journal of Medicine concluded that drivers involved
in alcohol-related fatal crashes were eight times more likely to have had DWI
convictions in the previous 5 years than drivers randomly selected from the
general population of licensed drivers.

The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) indicates that in 1996, about one in six drivers with
positive BAC levels who died in traffic crashes had been convicted of driving
while intoxicated during the three previous years.

And a 1995 California study
suggests that 44 percent of drivers convicted of DUI in that State are
reconvicted of DUI within 10 years. FULL STORY PDF DOWNLOAD

The above is a factual, statistical analysis of recidivism rates and deaths occuring as a direct result of Driving While Intoxicated…..

But we do not see any NATIONAL DUI Registries.
We do not see laws banning Drunks from places that sell alcohol.

We do not see any type of punishment for these people who get arrested time, after time, until they kill themselves or others…

On the other hand,… Sex offenders,

* Are being told that if they committed 1 crime 30 years ago, they Now, all of a sudden, have to register on a national website for life.
* Are being told they cannot go to local parks to spend time with their children and wife, even though they pay taxes to maintain these parks.
* Are being told they have to move from their homes as new laws have come into effect that say sex offenders, no matter if they are a threat to the community, no matter if their crime was pissing on a tree 30 years ago, they have to move because someone has opened a daycare, school, church or park within 1000, 2000, 3000 feet of their home.
* Are being told they have to inform a prospective Landlord that they are a sex offender. (Then the landlord can refuse to rent to them)
* Are being told they have to tell Prospective Employers that they area sex offender. ( Imagine that, getting hired after you tell someone you do not know, you are a sex offender)
* Basically, the present administration has thrown out the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and any hope of any one who has been labled Sex Offender of ever getting a Job, a place to Live or any hope of reclaiming their lives.
* This effects many people, not just the offender.

You say, ” They should just hang ‘em all” anyone who is a sex offender should be hanged.

Well, YOU may be a sex offender.

Have you ever pissed outside? Have you ever had sex with your girlfriend before you were 18 years old?

That’s Right… You also may be a sex offender.

Now, so, you are 50 years old, and when you were 16, you had sex with this girl, your own age…she wanted to, and so did you. Do you think YOUR name should be on the Sex Offender Registry?

Do you think YOU should have to go through all the unthoughtout crap that is being legislated?

How about this, you are 15 years old, your girlfriend is 13, you and she have sex. It is the first time for both of you and in the middle of it, her sister comes in and catches you and tells her mother.

You get arrested, convicted of a sex crime and because she is young, YOU have to register as a sex offender for LIFE.

You cannot go to any public park, you cannot live near any park or school, and you are plastered all over the news as a SEX OFFENDER.

Do you think that is right!???

That is what is happening in 50 states!

Thousands of people, who are NO threat to anyone are being bannished from society.

All to protect children… right, All so politicians can climb the ladder of success!

Someone needs to stop this witch hunt. If you want to protect children, start thinking of all the children of the SEX OFFENDER who committed 1 crime 30 years ago, and has children, grand children and who all of a sudden is all over the news, his children are getting picked on at school, and his children have nobody to play with because everyone thinks their daddy is a pervert.

If you want to help children, help some of the little boys and girls, some teens, who were messing around, experimenting with sex, and got charged with a sex crime.

If you want to help children, make sweeping changes to all the laws so they look at the individual, each sex criminal and evaluate what needs to be done.

If a person pisses on a tree, he should not be labeled a sex criminal!

If a child gets caught having sex with a child… do not persecute them for life like a rapist!

If a person committed a crime 20 year ago, with no more crimes since… do not RE TRY HIM ON THE INTERNET AND SENTENCE HIM TO LIFETIME OSTRICIZATION FROM SOCIETY… that hurts his children, his wife, and all his relatives.

If a person commits a crime like rape, or involving a child… sentence the hell out of him.. then when he gets out of prision… supervise him just like you do all other criminals… if he stays clean, he is rehabilitated.. if not, he will hang himself.

Everyone deserves a second chance. Well, Just about everyone.. that is up to the Judge and the laws of the country.

This Adam Walsh Act, and other laws… sweeping laws that are RETROACTIVE are unconstitutional. They deny due process in that a person has no way to address the courts. No way to state their case before the courts. How can you PUNISH a person for a crime he paid for 30 years ago? That is what is going on, and the courts are calling it, Administrative!

Just like,,,, I did not have sexual relations with that woman… Same thing.

Great article, Trinity. There should be no sex offender registry... if a sex offender is still a threat to society, then the proper place for him/her is in jail. If the sex offender is no longer deemed a threat, he/she should be as free as any other ex-con.
