Dad decides he's had too much to drink, so he lets his 13 year old drive.

Problem is the 13 year old had been drinking as well, and he scored a DUI.

We've officially hit the bottom of the gene pool.
 
What about charges for allegedly providing alcohol to a minor?

This guy's a piece of work.
 
I can only imagine, at times like this: What would Hed bust think?

Which SEC State did this occur in?

Dateline Clio, Mich.

Guess we'll have to wait for another thread to make the "Crap on the South" thread of the day.
 
Yeah, 'cause in the South, the young-uns know how to handle their liquor.

Plus, you generally don't have to drive back from the still.
 
I'm sorry. I'm not seeing a problem here.

A boy and his father are having an idyllic day at the park bonding and are simply trying to go home when some NAZI cops get all Gestapo on them and then the drive-by press has a field day with rumors and accusations.

Too bad there wasn't an 8-year-old designated driver to avoid all this unpleasantness.
 
Power-hungry cops. Who are they to tell a father and son what they can and can't do?

Honest, non-sarcastic question here: Did you read the link?

The father was too drunk to drive. That's strike one. He asks his son, a 13-year-old kid who's too young to drive in every jurisdiction in the country to drive. That's strike two. The KID is too drunk to drive. That's strike three, yer out. The kid gets busted for DUI. That's a 6-4-3 double play, end of game. You lose at life.

I have a feeling you just missed that whole pile of sarcasm.

The best sarcasm is the sneaky kind.

I didn't see any blue font. If I had, I wouldn't have posted that. Except if I directed it at the father.
 
Blue schmoo.

I think the father made the smart play. He's not the one busted for the DUI, and who cares if the kid's license is suspended anyway -- he doesn't have one.

Is blue font really needed when the sarcasm is that obvious.
Now let me get this straight you really belived that Ace saw no problem in a Father Son DUI and that he thought they should have had a sober 8 year old to drive them home

I agree.

(But if he agrees and he's using blue font does that mean he really disagrees, but if he disagrees then why is he usign blue font? Does not compute!)

He had me until he threw the 8 year old in there. Obviously ridiculous at that point.

Should have gone with a 10 year old instead.
