Joe Biden - "Time to put Trump in the bullseye."
This should be the policy after the THIRD DUI. This is a super-violent drug crime and we are far too easy on these psychopaths.

jan 23 2016 WEATHERFORD, Texas – A judge concerned about public safety sentenced a 62-year-old North Texas man to life in prison for his 10th drunken driving conviction since the 1980s.

Ivy Ray Eberhardt, of Weatherford, Texas, was sentenced Wednesday. Eberhardt would be eligible for parole after serving 15 years.

The case involved an April 2014 driving while intoxicated stop in Parker County in which Eberhardt's blood alcohol level was almost four times the 0.08 legal limit for driving in Texas.

While free on bond in that DWI case, Eberhardt cut off an electronic ankle monitor and fled to Colorado, where he was again arrested for drunken driving, prosecutors said.

However, putting others in danger of life and limb is a violent crime. When a medical solution isn't working and the perpetrator continues to put others in danger at what point do you find the "enough" line reached?

To liberals there is no "enough". They think drunk driving should be legal. To them all drug crimes are victimless even though drunk drivers kill thousands of americans every year.
 
If he got caught 10 times he probably drove drunk without getting caught hundreds of times. People like this shouldn't be on the roads endangering the lives of innocent drivers.

Agreed. This is WAY beyond 'he has a problem and needs help'. He is a danger.
 
How does he get vehicles to drive? Alaska confiscates your vehicle on the third offense, and each subsequent offense. It's crazy.
