She did it because it was the right thing to do. It was something that needed to be done. If Barb did things for personal glory and comfort, then she would have kept her mouth shut to maintain her status and lifestyle at Bethel. Sometimes it's not about the glory, it's about doing the right thing.

You could call the police, but by the time they found him he might have already been home.
I personally know of someone that was arrested after he drove home and was already in his house. If the police do their job, and the drunk driver is stupid enough to open the door to the police then there is a good chance he can be arrested for drunk driving, based on the evidence.

I would have called the police and given them his address and any other info they need. I don't care who it is, if I know someone is drunk or doing anything else illegal, then I inform the authorities.
A couple of months ago, I was walking down the sidewalk and overtook another pedestrian. As I walked past him I noticed a handgun in the back of his pants. I proceeded to walk to my car, called the police who asked me to follow him(which I did). The police then arrived and did their job. It turns out to be a fake gun, but as the police told me, "it looked like a real gun, and he's lucky that we didn't shoot him"
The point is, you just never know what may happen. This guy that was driving drunk, may do it again and kill someone. The guy I saw with a gun, could have had a real gun and later use it on someone.
Always be a good citizen and use the law when necessary.

So Cal - DoYouListen to Tom Lykus?
by fedorE inwhen i lived in windsor, ont i used to get 97.1 fm talk...which had the tom lykus show....topless/flash fridays when ladies would flash other drivers....anyhow he loved to debate on christian topics....once though he reduced a poor lady in a bad relationship to tears by ranting bout her 'pathetic disaster of a marriage'......another time he went on about how women having babies was no more a miracle of life than taking a dump, both biological functions that happen millions of times all the time ...... and expunged on that for a loooong time.
well i for one miss that kind of radio when im in my car not listening to tunes..theres nothing like that in ontairo....even if i dont agree with all he says...

I give Tom significant credit in my journey to mental freedom. His brutal honesty on all things from relationships to religion helped open my mind to reality. I recall many callers that had involvement with cults such as the j-dubs or mormons and Tom's viewpoints were an eyeopener for me. For instance he referred to the j-dubs as being bullies in order to retain their membership and control them. Discussions like that, among others, slowly awakened my mind.
Despite being a fan, I do not agree with some of his views. When he is discussing something I don't like, I oftentimes just change the radio station.
As of lately, I rarely listen to him, but when it's all said and done I have to give credit where it's due. Tom's honesty on human behavior and religion was of a big help to me.
Take me out Kobe style!

Daniel-P's Convention Experience
by daniel-p inwell, i'm here at the convention, and boy is it a dozer.
all the speakers blur together - they all sound like the same exact person with their superficial emphasis on the "key points.
" today was a tad juicy, with the "stay away from the demon-enhanced apostates" symposium and the "you don't need an education to scrub toilets, jerk" talk as well.

if I die before Armageddon, I'll still have a chance. I know he'd want that for me,
That attitude combined with a mental illness can make for a very scary recipe.
This is one thing I find very concerning about j-dubs or any similiar group. They've already got the pieces in place just waiting for some nutcase to take things one step further and do a murder/suicide because they think it's the only way they can survive armageddon.
cults suck!
