Obama admin to launch high level discussions on texting while driving

[240 is Back]

How about killing a federal agent, 33?  Should that be a federal crime?

No, it should be applied to the state where the crime was commited IMHO.

youre right.  Sad that dubya didn't have the guts to stand up to these pantywaist libs.  You can hate on obama's policies, but you gotta admit he has the guts to piss people off and do what he believed in.

Obama is just another politician who's views change as the polls go. Just look how everytime when a policy meets discord, they change the name and the talking points. Politicians think we are stupid and can be fooled easily.

if anyone hits us while texting, I'm taking out their entire family.  worthless sacks of shit who probably kill more people than Osama's wildest dreams.

Really?  So the life of a brave FBI agent, on the hunt for a bad person, is worth less in NYC (where the killer will get 15 years) than in TX (where the killer will fry)?

if im not mistaken the fact he is a govt employee who is on the job will lend itself to being a federal case if they want it to be...

so your analogy doesnt fit

I see.  So driving drunk and killing a family of 8 on an interstate...

you get a slap on the wrist in one state, but if you happen to drive over the border, you get a whole different sentence?

Look, i'm all for states rights... but if it means I have to drive in a dangerous state because FL's budget doesn't have room for convening to put a law into place on this, i'm not happy with that.

This is why you are not a conservative.  Take your point and you can apply it to anything, including gun rights, etc.

just being on an interstate doesnt make a crime on that freeway federal jack ass its called an interstate b/c it runs within more then one state

crossing the state line makes it plural as in you involved more then 1 state dumb ass and yes thats different.

you use a lot of profanity.  where did you learn that?  did someone scream 'jackass' and 'butt plug!' at you a lot, at an impressionable age?

Then move to state that is more to your liking.

Beside have people really become that stupid that we have to regulate common sense at federal level?

As per the original topic,  the administration isn't looking to make texting while driving a federal crime.

The Transportation Secretary is having meetings with state officials and recommending ways to curb texting accidents that will be implemented on a local level.
