I have no respect for people whose only motivation for refraining from drunk driving is because of the law (lemmy.ca)

I mean, I'm glad they refrain from drunk driving, but they're doing right for the wrong reasons.

Your motivation for not drunk driving should be that you don't want to risk harming or killing innocent people. Does that not enter your head?

If you say you won't drive drunk because there are cops everywhere, you're missing the point. You're saying it would be totally fine to risk innocent lives if not for the risk of getting caught.

I couldn’t give less of a shit why people do good things, as long as they’re doing them. I ain’t trying to judge people on their thoughts and feelings, its their actions that I give a shit about. Guy who doesn’t drive drunk because its illegal is still same net good as guy who doesn’t do it because its the right thing to do.
