I watch the news all the time. I shouldn't get so emotional, but like, your whole family?
00:00:05.420
What up, guys? Welcome to my reaction series. In my lifetime, the narrative officially has been
00:00:11.280
that men are very irresponsible. But really, when you look at it, women are the ones that
00:00:19.340
are irresponsible. Even though the media keeps telling us that men are the ones doing the
00:00:24.240
dangerous stuff, men are the ones that are reckless, it's really women that are the ones
1.00
00:00:28.540
that are reckless and we're gonna watch a bunch of videos today of women drinking and driving
1.00
00:00:34.420
um to prove it they always say that men are drinking like to drink and drive and that yeah
1.00
00:00:39.820
i mean that's true but they're better drivers so they can do it better you know lawrence woman
00:00:44.180
arraigned in her hospital bed is now facing a number of charges in the death of a tow truck
00:00:48.600
driver police say she told them she did three shots of vodka hours before the crash on 495
00:00:59.760
But as Julie McDonald explains, her blood alcohol test showed she was well below the legal limit.
00:01:08.000
Both the suspect and judge appeared surprised by that blood alcohol result during the arraignment here at Tufts Medical Center.
00:01:14.880
Investigators say they're still looking into whether she could have been under the influence of anything else.
00:01:20.600
Sheena Dion of Lawrence closed her eyes and covered her face Friday.
00:01:26.540
She's accused of hitting and killing tow truck operator Dan Cody
1.00
00:01:30.500
as he worked in the breakdown lane on 495 in Andover Wednesday.
00:01:35.340
These blue-collar men, I mean, they're really risking their lives to keep society going.
00:01:40.200
I mean, even truckers, right? There's bad drivers everywhere.
00:01:43.540
For the consequences as to what happened, we lost a very good man.
00:01:46.820
In court documents, police say Dion confessed to drinking three shots of vodka
00:01:53.980
but the prosecutor said her blood alcohol was only 0.03. It's well below the legal limit.
00:02:00.360
0.03. Yes, sir. That was the result of the point. I wonder how long it was after,
00:02:06.560
you know, they pulled her over. Women are such bad drivers that they literally thought she was
1.00
00:02:11.040
drunk. As investigators look into what else could have been in her system, Dion's attorney points to
00:02:18.660
dangerous weather. I'll get away with it. Women get away with everything. Conditions Wednesday night.
1.00
00:02:25.180
Hopefully they do something, you know, change things up a little bit
00:02:27.720
and make things a little safer for us out there.

1.00
00:16:12.280
in jail for life like it's not going to bring your family back oh my god that's making me
1.00
00:16:17.760
oh my god my heart just broke that's so sad um well guys this is what happens when you give women
1.00
00:16:25.260
the right to drive um the problem is women just always think we're going to get out of things
1.00
00:16:31.280
because we do get out of a lot of things and therefore because there's no consequences we
00:16:34.880
just keep going um but what's going to happen is women are going to get into positions of power
1.00
00:16:39.560
we're going to take them from men because women want to be men and we'll take the high status
1.00
00:16:42.900
positions and then women hate other women so feminism is just going to eat each eat itself
1.00
00:16:47.840
at some point so anyways all right guys let me know what you think in the comments like the video
