Please pass Kelli's Law. How many more people have to die by the hands of a drunk driver? If it were your family member killed or harmed wouldn't you want stricter laws and stricter sentences then? Our loved ones count just as much as any Politician's loved ones or any "Famous" person's loved ones. Stop the injustice!!!

I think it is rediculous how a law that can help save peoples lives can be rejected, but you know that if something like this would have happened to one of "them" they would have a new law passed in the blink of an eye. PASS KELLIS LAW!!!!!! It should be a cold day in hell the next time a murderer gets to walk free!!!!!!!! Jessica Eagle (pitabug). NC

This stirs up peoples emotions just like "The Passion." Next thing you know laws reach a draconian level and exist to serve no one but the legal system and special interest groups like MADD. Proof? Several years ago my brother and I both received DUIs. Neither of us were in our cars, but the keys were in the ignition. Thousands of people busted for "drunk driving" under the same law. Finally someone took the matter to the state supreme court, and the law was abolished. Stop the MADDness.

Array ( 3 months ago by Rearah)

Governor Sanford,
Oddly, this is the first I've heard about the deaths by DUI here in South Carolina. It seems I've been too focused on the other issues that South Carolina seems to be the worst at. Where is your outrage? You post a compelling video yet I, a resident of South Carolina, don't even know that you ar
e pushing for harsher DUI laws. You and your supporters should be marching the streets, appealing to the people of South Carolina. How do you plan to fix this problem?
