Austin4Wyo: I heartily agree. And I would think most folks would agree. When I was young we used to laugh at drunks, particularly in the movies (e.g. W.C. Fields). Now we only feel a bit sorry for them. Particularly if we're alcoholics, because we've been where they may be headed and we've made it back. Not everyone makes it back. It often ends in death or hell on earth. If they kill or disable others then that's quite a different matter. Ironic that when it happens on Memorial Day then they're adding more dead to those they "memorialize" by drinking.
