At least with the Amish their vehicles know how to get home without a driver.


True enough.

It is no defense. I know a guy who was convicted of DUI while riding his horse home from the bar.

The judge didn't buy the defense that the horse knew the way home and had enough sense to not step out into traffic and that the rider wasn't actually driving.

(and now everyone is ga-ga over driverless cars... :shrug:)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It's not a defense, clearly, but that being said, it's also much less likely to be a danger to the driver or to others if the horse can get itself back to the farm unaided.

No argument here. I thought the guy should have been acquitted.

I still remember some of the stories my great grand-dad used to tell about the family dairy he used to operate (unfortunately sold many, many years ago, but still operating under the original name):  back in the day, they had horse-drawn milk wagons - even after the auto made its entry - and many of the older horses were considered invaluable because they knew their routes and would just slowly continue to walk the route while the delivery guys jumped off and on the wagon grabbing fresh bottles of milk and cream to deliver, and putting the returned empties into the carrying crates.  No need for one guy to remain on the wagon at all times controlling it.

Oh I'm not defending it, I believe it's stupid to get in or on any vehicle while drunk, all I'm saying is that a horse may have been the original self driving vehicle and I think most their way back to the barn.

Even weirder when the price of crude oil is set by bid in commodity markets, and the price of petroleum products is set by the cost of raw materials (crude oil).

Yet we have a generation full of entitled little bitches 
living better than all Kings 200 year ago,
claiming they're somehow oppressed?

Maybe it is time for God to Return. Just sayin....
