yeah, the thing is i'm a pretty hard core republican so i think there should be less government involvment in our day to day lives. (meaning less cops for stupid things) i think cops should get UNSAFE drivers off the road. i see nothing unsafe about driving 80 on a free way (look at the autobahn) and i see nothing unsafe about rolling a stop sign.

in my oppinion it should be your choice to wear you belt, if you don't want to then oh f***ing well, don't. its only your life/your choice.

i just think its time for a change in the judicial system, its getting pretty bogus :gunsmilie:

No, they just need to stop putting people in prison for stupid stuff. Here's a solution:

Speeding- small fines=$1 for every 1 mile over
Drinking- drinkink age of 18
Marajuana- LEGALIZE, the gov. would make so much money off of it if they taxed it and only allowed it to be sold in stores-Look At Canada

i think the 1$ per mile thing wouldn't work at all. i do agree with the 18 year old drink age and not cuz i'm underage. i think its redicoulously f***ed up that someone can go get shot and killed for the same government that won't allow them to drink. there's a bill in proccess for that very reason i think.

and i also agree with the weed situation (again, i don't smoke and never have)
but they would make bank of taxes but it would do numbers on our current econ.

speeding is speeding, there should never be a set # on your ticket. nor a set speed at which you get them. if your going 30 over and dont have a serious serious reason you need more than a 30 dollar ticket.

I say the hell with the sensor thing. If it's not censoring oh well, As long as every other word isn't **** a ****. then I don't see the problem

EDIT: I do agree with censoring that second word though.

Actually it also refers to a body part and an action. Enough how about those tickets people.

Just read about a kid doing 148 in a 60 in a 3000gt. That sucks!

I understand speed limits in and close to the cities, but I think once you get out into the rural areas and open highways, that basically have either light or no traffic, they should bump the limits up to 80mph, or eliminate them all together with a law like "No faster than road conditions safely allow" or a "Common Sense Law". With that if you were driving through the desert on a clear sunny day, and there were no other cars on the road, you could go as fast as you wanted. If it was snowing and you were driving 80mph on ice at night, you could and should be ticketed for "unsafe speed for current road conditions" or "Lack of Common Sense" lol. Maybe a set limit for night time driving to take long range visibility into account. I also think that if the speed limit for passenger cars is 80mph, semi trucks should be allowed to drive 80mph too, instead of being limited to 55mph like in some states. Forcing large trucks to drive way slower than the normal flow of traffic causes too many accidents. I wouldn't be opposed to higher fines for speeding if the speed limit was 80mph. I think running red lights or stop signs should always be a ticketable offense, because too many people die every year because of that. I also think drivers that get pulled over for being under the influence of alcohol or drugs should lose their liscence for several years, and their car should be either sold at auction, putting the money into a fund to help drunk driver victims, or crushed and sold for it's scrap steel value with the money going to help innocent people. I'm not talking about the "California Stop" where you slow down to nearly a full stop (like coasting under 2mph), see that the road/intersection is clear and then go. I think if you get caught drifting or racing on city streets (at least if it's during high traffic times, not necessarily at 3am on deserted streets in commercial areas) you should get a major fine the first time, after that you lose your liscence and car.

As far as prisons go, I hate knowing that as taxpayers, we are supporting so many people on death row. I also hate reading that it cost's taxpayers $millions to finally execute a person when their appeals finally run out. Bullets are cheap, and rope is reusable. I don't care if one method of execution is considered "inhumane" or not, most people on death row are there because of inhumane acts they perpetrated towards innocent people. Let em suffer a little sample of the type of pain they caused their victims. If found guilty in court, and there was creditable DNA evidence, video, credible witnesses etc, there should be no appeals. If setenced to death, hang them or line them up in front of the firing squad at sunrise the following day and be done with it. I feel car thiefs, and carjackers should be hung from the nearest tree once they are caught. Though not typically enforced anymore, most states still have stealing horses as a hangable offense on the books, why should cars be any different. Ok enough of my ranting, off my soapbox. lol

mabye we could run for president together, we could be running mates. cuz i sure do like your views. montana used to have that speeding law, but they did away with it about 8 or so years ago.

and i think all roads need a minimum speed. more accidents accur do to people trying to get around slow drivers........

and hang em hi, if its inhumane don't kill rape or rob, not too hard to obey.

Our society has just gotten to soft on criminals, so now the criminals are looking at big payoffs/paydays, with minimal risk. I know in the county I live in right now, the courts have resorted to a reevolving door policy. I know a guy that stabbed an old guy 16 times and tried to kill him, because the old guy asked the guys GF to bring back his stuff that she stole when she was working for him. The stabber spent less than 2 weeks in jail, even though at the time he was arrested, he had a "hit list" he was trying to get put together with the names of all the firefighters and ambulance personell that responded to the stabbing call. This same guy is a repeat convicted felon, that had just been released 2 months before for attempted kidnapping rape and sodomy of a famale hitch hiker. He only spent a few months in jail for that one too. Basically you can commit nearly any crime now, and be back on the streets to offend again in record time (if you even get arrested at all). Makes me sick thinking about it sometimes.
