Alcohol on the Brain

A Sunday News & Record article raised the issue of how far we're willing to punish DWIs that do not result in someone being killed.

That same day, the News & Observer pointed out how drunken-driving suspects are sometimes arrested, processed, and shortly turned loose, allowing some of them to be caught a second time for the same offense within hours of their release.

Today's News & Record included an editorial on the subject.

Joe Guarino's thoughts.

Some of my own.
