The problem of course is getting the establishment state reps to back his bills. He may get quite a bit of support but it probably won't be enough to pass his bills. |

You can walk, bike, or take a bus FFS. Driver's licenses are merely indicators that the person in question is competent to operate a lethal piece of machinery. Do you really want just anyone driving a car? Your ten year old son? The drunk down the street? |

State Rep. Bobby Franklin, R-Marietta, has filed House Bill 7, calling it the "Right to Travel Act." In his bill, Franklin states, "Free people have a common law and constitutional right to travel on the roads and highways that are provided by their government for that purpose. Licensing of drivers cannot be required of free people, because taking on the restrictions of a license requires the surrender of an inalienable right." FUCKING A!!!! I knew it was fucking full of retards here, but FUCK. These assholes already dont know how to drive. Not making them licensed would make it worse. This asshole is fucking retarded. You do not have a constitutional right to use the highways. You do not have the constitutional right to drive. SORRY FUCKO. |

It may not stop a hardcore drunk driver, but it does allow for consequences for that drunk driver, and is a guarantee of some basic level of competence. It may not solve all the problems of bad drivers, but it would be a thousand times worse without some sort of standard. Plus the guy's argument is false to begin with. |

You live in canada. i live in georgia. This would be a HORRIBLE idea. its about people's ability to drive, which people in georgia do not have, for the most part.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1118750Exactly. Except they won't even make it in the air if they can't fly. And they'll kill themselves crashing. Driving and piloting ain't the same thing at all. First, who's gonna let you borrow their plane if you can't fly? If you buy your own plane, then I bet you will do everything to know how to fly it before ruining that investment. |

The same could be said of a car, but people routinely fail to operate their car correctly because of ignorance. And ignorance of operation can also cause death as well. Just because they are more rare doesnt make them more dangerous. Less so, in fact. |

So you'll happily let a new immigrant that may well be used to driving on the wrong side of the road, and perhaps not know the meanings of road signs just jump in a car and have at 'er? Or how about a guy that's been convicted of killing someone driving drunk? Oh yeah... the police would never know because he would not have to show his license when pulled over. This "Freeman" bullshit is completely retarded from the standpoint of actually having a livable society. That bill is going NOWHERE. No constitution in the world mentions a right to motor a motor vehicle. You are free to walk, bike, skateboard or rollerblade wherever the hell you want so no-one is infringing your precious "rights" by licensing motor vehicle operators. |

This is the kind of shit haters say to make a mockery of libertarians and their positions, and here Georgia is fueling that fire. Of all the issues of freedom to focus on... How about stop throwing fucking weed smokers in prison and then we can maybe talk about not having to have a fucking license. Also you think the piglets of Georgia are going to be down for this? How else are they going to be able to hassle you for your papers? |
