Brandon Reilly DUI

[desertshox]

Anyone who suffers from road rage should take a few hits before getting behind the wheel.

There ought to be a law.

if people in nebraska would learn to drive there would be far less road rage, especially from me.

Should Reilly be punished more harshly than Randy Gregory for his repeated failed drug tests?

Yeah, he should.
Because Reilly made everybody else on that highway share the risks of his poor decision making.

Because Gregory was stoned only while walking? Or do you think he was behind the wheel of a car at some point too?

Are you serious with this? Driving isn't nearly as impaired while high on marijuana as it is while drunk.

Maybe the habitual smoker is a better driver, but for those that only dabble here and there, I'd confidently say they'd be worse than someone driving drunk at .15

Not to rain on any parades here, but there have actually been a lot of studies that have concluded being high from smoking weed behind the wheel isn't nearly as dangerous as being drunk behind the wheel. One of the main reasons is because stoners typically drive considerably slower than drunks. Stoners typically take less risks while drunks typically take more risks.

I have to add that I really didn't know until yesterday. I read Moraine's post and thought it had to be wrong until I actually looked it up.

i don't deny that, at all - when you're talking about the "stoner." For the recreational smoker, I would question that theory/study. The YouTube link below is a 5min video of a study on the effects of marijuana and driving.

Which brings us back 'round to why it was brought up in the first place - Randy Gregory. He definitely qualifies as stoner. I didn't specify I was specifically talking about people who did it a lot, though. But the reply was about whether Reilly should be punished more severely than Gregory, and he should. We don't even know for sure that Gregory drove high, and even if he did, well we've talked about that already.

Now you are just making sh!t up.

"Well what if..." Reilly was caught DUI, Gregory wasn't. Since Gregory wasn't, there is nothing in common even for conjecture.

Ted Bundy was caught as a serial killer, you weren't. Should you be treated the same as Ted Bundy because of "Well what if"?

 

[Bowfin]

Yeah, that way they will just cause road rage, not suffer from it.

Is it just me or does Abby remind you of Venus Flytrap in WRKP in Cincinnati when they were doing the drunk test?

The point is people want to see Reilly punished for what he could have done while driving under the influence.

i don't know who that is, but Abby still cracks me up. I watched this news clip when it first ran 4-5 years ago, she made me laugh then too. Do you have a link to who you're talking about?

 

[Hayseed]

If he's Irish and it was St. Patty's Day......he should get a pass unless you want to take a chance on all the snakes coming back. I'm not willing to take that chance.

The worse thing about lincoln is the lack of public transport and cabs at night. Its really ridiculous that a town that size with that big of a college cant do better.

 

[Bowfin]

No.

The point is people want to see Reilly punished for the risk he made everybody else on that highway take on account of his poor choices.

Reilly was playing Russian Roulette in his car with a lot of people who didn't even know they were playing. So forgive us if we get indignant if he pointed it at them and pulled the trigger...even if there was only a "click" this time and not a "bang".

Damn, now I feel old. I was wrong though, it wasn't Venus but Dr. Fever who I was thinking of.

Anyway, I am hoping this is the link http://www.hulu.com/watch/290

It is 20 some minutes long. I do miss this show.

How about you and me swap hats?

You have every right to be upset that he was out driving like that. I won't argue that. I just have a few issues with the "punishment" part. But if Riley holds a player to a higher standard of accountability than Pelini did, so be it.

 

[cm husker]

Some of you are just obsessed. It's incredible. What does pelini have to do with this? Why would a Gregory punishment for a different offense have anything to do with it? If you want to compare, tell me what happen when a player got a DUI under him.
