Drunk driving is correctly banned, yes.

I think the significance of the fact that it was a politician's relative is that it suggests that this is part of a larger pattern. I think it would be similar if you had a politician calling for violence against an ethnic group that resulted in actual violence; that seems like a good reason for restrictions to me.




I wasn't aware this was part of a larger pattern of assaults on politicians in the US. Link?


See January 6th for examples of recent political violence
