May 7, 2008 at 16:58:41 Dalai Lama's Translator Lhalungpa's widow forgives Driver; Dalai Lama expresses condolences; New NM DWI Legislation by Stephen Fox     Page 2 of 2 page(s) http://www.opednews.com

This is what the Legislature can and must do. Just getting interlock devices installed on first time DWI's cars was a major battle which took many years, thanks to very well paid lobbyists working for the liquor industry. New Mexico's legislature is massively influenced by corporate lobbyists, perhaps like all legislatures in the USA.

Even if you don't believe in reincarnation, there is hopefully some bright light that will come from this tragedy: we must organize to pass much stronger laws concerning DWI. The driver who killed Lobsang had had 4 DWI's before, I am told, yet still kept driving drunk! If he had been taken off the streets or even feared being taken off the streets and incarcerated, might he not have been driving that fatal day and killed this international treasure, taking him from our midst? It is a classic and terrible story of two worlds colliding: the ideal and spiritual world, colliding with the drunken vulgarity world.
