 A mistake
by: Anonymous

I'm sorry that you lost your brother. And yes, he made a mistake. And he still is a killer, a murderer. He made a choice to drive after drinking. It was a concsious decicion, no one forced him to get behind the wheel and drive. Your other brother eaven tried to stop him. It does not matter what the situation is or how nice a person a drunk driver is. The fact remains that they make a choice weather to drive or not. It is murder, premeditated murder actually because they know it's dangerous and could end up in tragedy.

 After two years
by: Anonymous

Hello im the sister who wrote about my brother.
After two years have gone by since i shared my story. And its still hard my saddness turned into anger for my brother.. i miss him everyday my family and his children miss him. I live in a city were drinking and driving happens every dam week two or three at a time so many innocent people are dieing and it saddns me how this city is not doin anything to fix this major issue. All i know is yes i was selfish and was upset that my brother was gone and not caring what he did all i wanted was him back i still want him back but im upset that he did this to our family and how life is slowly moving on without him it just aint fair life isnt fair. I was driving to work two days ago and i saw this huge accident on the freeway as i came in to work i got online to see what happen.. 30 min before i left and got into my car a 21yr old girl was drunk and driving the wrong way killing her self and injuring two other innocent people, and that freaked me out!! If i would of left just a lil bit earlier that could of been me. So i wrote today because i read your comments and thank you for giving me the time to read my story! Peace and love....

 your brother

I feel more sorry for the 58yr old woman who was killed by your brothers irresponsibility. I'm sure your brother was a nice guy. Taking a innocent life by drinking and driving is not a mistake,it murder. Its the same as taking a loaded gun and firing it into a crowd. I have lost such a good person and have seen the devastation a drunk driver causes by murdering and innocent person.
