No; that 10% figure included those that didn't get hit. Otherwise, it would be 30%.

Fringe? I never said it was fringe because I'm well aware that there are people just as clueless as you out there in way higher numbers than they should be for Darwin's law to mean anything.
Ad hommin.
Wild? Nah, Trump's practically dressed in a shirt with a CP image on the front, holding a sign that says "I diddle kids", while standing underneath a neon sign the size of a Times Square billboard that says "America's #1 pedo", and people like you will STILL be like
Well, Nirvana literally did that with a music album ... and left wingers didn't care.
When it does, it's way more brutal on average. You numerically measure it by the % that get hospitalized over it.
I'm pretty moderate.
People who drive under the influence do not typically get into a vehicle planning to hurt others. They either dont realize how impaired they are and/or they think they can make it home without incident. Thus, DUI is not a direct and intentional attack on other people. If someone other than the offender is hurt, it is unintentional and incidental.
The rapist will often say, "she didn't say no", so he didn't think he was harming her. That, and some women will say no but want it anyways, adding more confusion for the rapist.
There is no good reason to do that.
There is no good reason to do rape or DUI. We agree. But DUI is worse.
Well presumably you knew they were drunk when you got in the car.
And you told them to let you (a sober person) drive and they refused to let you. You could uber, but the person who the DUI driver's vehicle crashed into (and all of their passengers) can't do that. How would they know they would crash into a DUI convict?

Why wouldn't it? Is it because the Album is too popular?
Imagine denying that Trump is a pedophile. Wild, shit take.
The majority of America either denies it (30s%) or is unsure (20s%).
Many Americans say Trump "involved" in Epstein crimes: poll - Salon.com. Please don't call it fringe or wild.
1. Nirvana doesn't hold an elected office.
2. Unlike Trump, lawsuits against Nirvana claiming sexual impropriety have been dismissed.
3. A questionable album cover image by Nirvana is not comparable to explicit accounts of sexual assault of a minor which Trump is accused.
Until the left can cancel Nirvana for certain p3dophillia and child porn and never listen to a Nirvana song ever again with music that's lasted for decades, I fail to see why the right should cancel Trump with POSSIBLE p3dophillia over a presidency that will be over in 2.5 yrs max; I'm just being brutally honest. You did a good job with Muhommond. Can you replicate with Nirvana? Because if not, then you don't care about cancelling p3dos and you should stop pretending that you do. I'm not saying the left is pro p3dophillia, I'm just saying they would NEVER find it cancelable if Trump didn't have accusation of p3dophilllia. If you disagree, then boycott all Nirvana songs. You just don't have it in you. Give it up; you're not about cancelling people whose music you really like no matter how much fucked up stuff they do to kids.
Sidewalker's meme and my agreement with it make sense in a world where reality prevails and sexual assault (and rape) is understood as a direct and intentional attack on a person while DUI is not.
DUI is a direct and intentional attack on any passengers in the vehicle and any vehicles that the DUI offender hit. Rape is an intentional attack on one person.
The Justice system recognizes this fact. I mean, here in my state, DUI is a misdemeanor until the THIRD offense while sexual assault is a felony. Period.
Then maybe lets make first time DUI offense a felony worse than rape. So much trauma gets produced from DUI if you are a passenger or another vehicle.
If someone was driving dangerous enough from DUI that they get caught and I'm a passenger, then I'd probably deal with trauma from that. I'd be scared of getting in a car crash and losing my legs. That would be traumatizing.
It stands to reason that a driver who learns how to drive well under any sort of impairment would drive even better once that impairment is removed. Simply asserting the contrary position is not an argument.
Or they just drive sober for 100% of their driving life. DUI should be illegal.
Raping enslaved women was also not an American tradition.
It was. Tradition doesn't mean acceptable.
I never said it was wrong or irrational to arrest and punish drunk drivers who drove unsafely - those are the ones who are by definition unsafe on the road. But there are also plenty who are safe.
Enough of them are dangerous from a double choice circumstance (being drunk and driving) to where it's better just to ban DUI across the board.
Don't tell me what to do, bucko.
You DUI and TUI (Text ...)? Too dangerous. Also, what's going on with your veins? India drives on the left side.
You absolutely can control how tired you are, what an asinine statement. It's called sleeping.
Throughout the day, you can't.
Wow, what a great argument against the Protestant work ethic! Thanks, I don't even have to type anything for this one.
Way more Indians want to move to America than vice versa. That lets you know which nation is better. Your nation has a higher death from car accidents than America does.

Your claim makes sense if I was defending legalizing rape. I'm merely saying it's not as bad as DUI. Accusations of sexism and SkyWalker RageBait mean nothing anymore.

-> I'm talking about regular American citizens, either native or inmigrants, interacting with visitors or tourists.
Who built the America that the immigrants want to move too? Regular American Citizens.
->Curiously, this toxic behaviour is seen more among hispanics and negros, not that much in white people.
Because the more wealthy you were raised, the softer you are.
->All what comes up must come down indefectibly and the US is not the exception.
Plenty of exceptions exist (China).
->That's not a comprehensive measure though. 13% of rape victims attempt suicide. Suicide attempts have about a 10% success rate. So rape has about a 1.3% chance of killing someone. A single instance of drunk driving is probably safer than that, though if you are limiting this to DUI arrests, then it's a 1-2% chance of involving a death. But the majority of the time the person killed is the driver themselves. So just in terms of deaths caused to other people, rape is more harmful. There's also the trauma from being violated, which happens in 100% of rape cases but not 100% of DUI cases. Most of the time, the driver doesn't hit anyone. But just the fact that 13% of rape victims are so unhappy at some point that they try to kill themselves indicates that rape causes significant trauma.
Carney's time as PM is limited and he cares about his legacy, so I propose the following offer.
Have Canada join the US and get this bilingual state named after you.
Refuse the offer, and the US will take Canada quicker while you get no lasting legacy to your name. You would be perceived similar to Robert E Lee; a traitor to America.
The choice is yours; tic toc.
As a non native, I disapprove strongly.
->What I meant to say is that if the other person I'm talking to speaks my mother tongue perfectly because he is hipanic like me, I'm not going to start the conversation in another language, that is ridiculous.
If someone talks to you in Spanish, then either:
-> It is as if you travel to Spain and you come across an American, you're not going to speak with him in Spanish, that would be imbecilic.
No, you would speak with him in English because English is simply a better language than Spanish because it's more useful. Again, calling someone a racist is no longer an insult. Not all cultures are equal.
->The problem with some hispanics in the US is that they refuse to speak Spanish with the hispanic travelers, although they don't speak English very well.
They've become Americanized, and Hispanic Whites see themselves as just White at this point (Hispanic darks). And I have no empathy with Hispanics in the US who don't know English and are unwilling to learn. If I sense they're unwilling to learn English (and I know Spanish), then I just don't help them and let them suffer from ignorance. After all, Mexico treats undocumented Guatemalans like CRAP and their language is actually the same.
->Maybe they get contagious by the toxic patriotism of Americans.
The immigrants are attracted to that toxic patriotism. I didn't force them to come here. They chose to move here.
It's better to be toxically patriotic than to be hypocritical Claudia Sherbaun's puppet. And unlike 2018, blacks aren't your friends either. They are ALSO telling you, "Speak ENGLISH!". The Hispanics swung for Trump in 2024 when the target immigrant group was blacks.
Me no speakies have no friends anymore except for dark skinned Hispanics. Everyone else wants them to learn English and if they refuse too, then they just don't get help from us. America has embraced fascism, Nazism, whatever you want to call it. We don't care; the insults have lost their power.
White Hispanics are just Whites now.
Basic need: Food.
If nobody works for food, then food doesn't exist because you need capitas to make food.
A basic need that everyone thinks should be free is oxygen (because nobody works to make it except trees which don't have rights).
Everything that cost money costs money because other people worked for it.
It's basic economics; read an economics textbook.
->This is not a good standard as trauma isn't limited to physical.
Mental trauma sends you to the hospital too.
-> That being said, it's pretty disgusting to suggest an intentional act of stealing another person's 'self' is not as bad as negligently driving under the influence (which doesn't necessarily cause harm).
->How is that possible if Americans don't speak Spanish? Do you?
The majority of Hispanics in the US are bilingual. I'm not Hispanic, I think I'm fluent in Spanish, but I'm in America and speaking Spanish causes me pain, so I don't like doing it.
->I don't like to use English when someone speaks Spanish perfectly, I feel stupid.
Well, then get better English. Your English here is pretty decent; if you talk like that in the real world, then nobody will think you're stupid off of it. You're in America; so assimilate. Culture preservation is less important than practicality expansion.
->And when I have to speak in English, I use the brit accent. Lol.
It's irrelevant; as long as I can understand you.
->Say something that absolute nonsense? Yes.
How is it nonsense?
->Plenty of drunk drivers out there.
And they are more likely to cause a hospitalization per passanger than a rapist is per victim.
->No, I firmly believe that rape is worse than drunk driving.
Alright; you were serious. I'll address your argument seriously then.
->Drunk driving helps you improve a skill.
No; it gets you in car accidents. The best way to learn to drive is to drive sober (the only way you should be driving).
->Drunk driving is an American tradition. The Founding Fathers famously attended many wine-soaked gatherings and, after a night of revelry and heavy drinking, would ride their horses home.
The founding fathers didn't even have cars. And raping enslaved women was tradition. As a matter of principle; who CARES if it's tradition or not?
->How many of those 'drunk driving fatalities' were caused by innocent intoxicated motorists being waylaid and ambushed by malicious, sober ones - fat white women watching Lilo and Stitch on their phone while they carelessly mow down innocent pedestrians before colliding with a perfectly competent, if tipsy, driver and ruining his life?
If you drive drunk, then you are not innocent.
->The venomous hatred of drunk drivers is a moral panic.
It's a moral imperative to hate drunk drivers; they are dangerous on the roads.
->The modern world hates fun, so drunk drivers are maligned and pilloried by a hypocritical and nasty shrews because they have fun before they get behind the wheel.
You can have a beer, but don't get behind the wheel afterwards.
->Driving while sleep impaired has been shown to cause just as many issues as driving with a BAC above the legal limit
You cannot control how tired you are; you can control how much beer you've had recently. Although tired people shouldn't drive either, it's not the same.
->This is because America's sick Protestant work ethic sees overworking yourself before getting behind the wheel of a car as 'virtuous' compared to downing a few brews with the homies.
America's "sick" protestant work ethnic attracts millions of Indians to leave their streets filled with cow shit where virtually nobody owns a car and your nation is so poor that your low IQ people from 3rd world shitholes argue that THIS is a hotel:
The American Protestant Work Ethic is उत्कृष्ट.
Are you doing satire right now?
Aaaaand that's all anyone needs to read.
Yes.
Did I stutter?
I measure how bad a traumatic event is by how often people go to the hospital over it.
According to Chat GPT:
You can say that women's emotions are more at stake for rape, and you would be wrong. Rape is sex without consent. But sometimes, women consent to sex enthusiastically. No women ever enthusiastically agrees to ride in a car with someone who has a DUI.
So I'm thinking in the name of logical consistency; DUI is worse than rape and it's how society should perceive the crimes.
Jews love American blacks way too much.
Murder is a stereotypically black crime. Child rape is a stereotypically white crime. Murder is worse than any type of rape (even rapes of white women by black ghetto guys).
If you say, "Execute murderers", then a bunch of Jews will say, "What about the poor person of color?"
If you say, "Execute child rapists", then zero Jews will say, "What about the poor person from a broken trailer home?"
Now, the correct response is, "who cares about your life story? You don't get to murder and rape children? Execute both, repeal the 8th amendment.".
But Jews treat American blacks way too nicely. Why is that?
