What should have been done?

[Reverend Joe]

We don't live in a perfect world and not all choices have a clear good and bad. Sometimes, the best choice will result in doing implicit harm to others. The thing is you can't follow the "my family" rule as public servants and still expect to make tought decisions of any kind.

Lets say it was WWII, and you are a congressman. Would you want the US to enter the war after Pearl Harbor if hypothetically you had a family in Germany that had no connections with the Nazi Regime, but may be all killed due to civilian casualties from bombings??? Using the welfare of one person or small group to justify the punishment of everyone else can never work.

DA, for your information, is a former police officer. I think he knows what he is talking about.

And anyhow, I'm fairly sure this woman did not declare war on the United States by getting her trailer stuck on a highway. Sure, she was stupid, but that's no reason to punish someone, unless you want to start beating the out of retarded kids to teach them a lesson. The guy could have still moved her trailer out of the way of traffic without destroying it.

I think the problem here is the dude who ran for reelection on the slogan "More Dick." Anybody who runs with a slogan like that is a world-class dick, in my opinion.
