Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

In my opinion, I have no problem lowering the BAC floor. You cannot tell when you're too drunk to drive. It's much safer to just follow the maxim of if you're going to drink, don't drive; if you're going to drive, don't drink. It's so easy to not drink alcohol. Easier than drinking even; you just have to not buy it.

My opinion might be skewed because I know several alcoholics who insist that they're good (if not "better") drivers when they're buzzed. I hate my city's drug culture. People treat me like a damn unicorn because I don't use alcohol, nicotine, or THC.

I don't buy more than 1 beer when I go out. I end up drinking 4-5 because people buy me drinks for singing. I literally sing for my ~~supper~~ liquid bread.

Yeah, the fact that people are enablers didn't even cross my mind. Even more reason to hate the drug culture.
