Maybe not?
I’m sure this new legislation in France will impress the hell out of libertarians world wide. The French have identified that statistically, alcohol is involved in some 30% of traffic collisions. The solution? Mandatory breathalysers in every car. Al Jazeera breaks this story wide open:
“A new motoring law has come into effect in France, whereby it will be compulsory for drivers to carry breathalyser kits in their vehicles.From Sunday, motorists and motorcyclists risk facing an on-the-spot fine unless they travel with two single-use devices. The law is part of a government initiative to reduce the figures of drink-driving related fatalities. The new regulations, which exclude mopeds, will be fully enforced and include foreign drivers from November 1, following a four-month grace period. Anyone failing to produce a breathalyser after that date will receive an 11 euro fine.”
This is step in the right direction as people continue to drink and drive killing themselves and others by the thousand. Good show France. :)
Oh, here is how to beat the Breathalyser, it will only cost you your dignity.
It is nice to see a little sanctimony coming from the other side of the political spectrum once and awhile. Bill Maher fills that role admirably.
Nothing like a fair heaping of ridicule for the GOP to start the day off right.
I’m thinking we need a Canadian version for our own reality challenged Conservative party.
I’m thinking we may need to investigate the MPAA’s claims about piracy and copyright…

Oh and we get redefine terms as well:
I enjoy breaking my computer on a fairly regular basis. I install something, or upgrade or some variation of the two and then the stuff hits the fan. No biggie, backtrack mess with things and everything is good once again. Printing documents though is different. Printing is High Stakes, High Risk, No Safety rope material. When I see a print error I cringe, all the hope drains from my world. No amount of cancelling a document or deleting it will fix things. With zombie like tenacity the borked print job just petulantly stares back at me. I’ve considered what is going on, but now its confirmed:
