I did not defend drinking and driving - that is clearly a no no. My issue
is with the labeling the poster an alcoholic, then the continued posts of
that nature with a number of faulty assumptions. The intolerance I
mentioned was thrown in regarding Jay's views on a few issues he seems to
think are appropriate for an aviation group. Instead of answering the
person's questions about FAA issues and commercial ratings Jay, among
others, chose to chastise the person. We come to find out later that Jay
readily admits to still driving after a few drinks!?!?! What is that all
about? A little but of hypocrisy I think.

\Perhaps he has a problem with people who have so little control, that

continue to drink and drive.
You know nothing about the
circumstances and should not venture to say that you know what this
person
should do about drinking or not drinking.
YES, HE CAN VENTURE TO SAY THAT HE SHOULD NOT DRINK AND DRIVE!
One DUI is a mistake.
Two, is an indication of a person without self discipline, or very
immature, or an indication of a person with an alcohol problem.
For someone in the services industry you seem to be a little too
intolerant.
Perhaps his position lets him see many too many people with alcohol
problems.
Where have you been the last decade or so? Have you not realized that
there
is little tolerance for people who drink and drive?
To the original poster: Go ahead and try to do the flying thing. Be
aware,
that if you did not change your ways, you will eventually screw up, and be
slapped backwards, all the way to yesterday, if there is another DUI.
I sincerely wish you good luck!
