After all, young Miss Cyrus is too young to drink alcohol or rent a car. Read the full story

DUI Laws Lead to Unfair Profiling of Drunks


San Francisco, CA (GlossyNews) — Piggybacking on the protests over Arizona’s new immigration law that demands proof of citizenship from people dressed in pointy cowboy boots, polyester shirts, tattered sombreros and riding old girl’s bikes, an army of drunken drivers are furious over current DUI laws they believe target their right to drive like kooks and kill anyone in their paths.
