» The nanny state strikes again   2003-08-20 18:53 usprez

Just read your piece re the 'Nanny State'.

You poor, sad buffoon.

The law re child seats is about the rights of children, not about the 'rights' of their parents. But for the law, regardless of extraneous circumstances, parents would be able to transport these children however they want. And the children would have no say whatsoever about it. Do you consider that to be a more just outcome?

Perhaps in this case, in retrospect, it would have been better for old mate Nunes to drive home. That's all good and well. What you haven't considered, my little friend, is that Nunes should have thought about return transport BEFORE he went boozing in the first place. There is a Latin maxim that goes "volenti non fit injuria"- translation: voluntary assumption of risk. If Nunes didn't want to walk home, then he should have thought about it earlier.

Trying to blame the government for this kid's injuries is typical of your nonsensical ranting. Put some thought into what you write before you post it on your page. Otherwise you'll just evoke sympathy for your own sad plight, rather than the plights of others.
