Comments
There is no cure for drunk driving, why would this person want to give someone their license back. How many chances should someone get to kill a child or one of us. Stop protecting drunk drivers, and do your job to protect the public. You claim nothing is more important than protecting children, but your actions show it's more important to protect Drunk drivers.
