In 2016, around twenty-eight people died every single day in alcohol related car crashes. That is half of the people who were killed in the Las Vegas shooting happening each and every day.
Most of the people who took lives in those crashes probably weren't even in a bad mood.
Evidently, that isn't really newsworthy.
But there are laws on the books meant to curb DWIs. There wasn't a "Coors Lite lobby" around to block sensible regulations on this. On top of the horror or these incidents, part of the frustration is that we think nothing will come of these tragedies because politicians will move on like there isn't a problem.
