Latest Cop Arrested for Drunk Driving - from Down Under, Mate

Rebecca Harrison, a 32 year old policewoman is the latest example of a law enforcement officer being arrested for driving under the influence. This latest example is according to news reports from Margaret River, Austrailia. No rookie, the intoxicated cop is referred to as a "senior constable" in news reports. Most telling of all, not only was she on duty, she was driving her patrol car.

One might be tempted to wonder why a law enforcement officer would be driving under the influence of alcohol. As usual, the government will try to pretend that this is a shocking and unexpected development. In reality, the government's legislators, police, and judges have conspired to distribute and derive funds from the sale of narcotics. This particular drug, alcohol, causes the user to experience reduced judgement and inhibitions. Then these same drug dealers act as if it is surprising when people get behind the wheel after consuming the drug that helps pay their salaries.

What's the solution? Easy. Stop putting cars on the street without ignition interlocks. It's impossible to make a good decision about driving when you are under the influence of alcohol. If it was impossible to start the car until the driver was sober, DUI wouldn't happen.
