    Comments sections. Where nuance goes to die. All context is flattened and your views must be expressed as black or white lest you get branded as having the wrong opinion.

      I don’t think alcoholics should be allowed to drive, is that too much to ask?

      Driving is a privilege, not a right, and the roads are already dangerous enough as they are.

      I understand the dynamics in the US are what they are regarding cars and the lack of public transportation or bicycle infrastructure, but I don’t believe the avoidable deaths are a worthy trade off. Change needs to start somewhere, and excusing the deaths for some artificially created issue is not acceptable.
