I hate these goddam alcoholics. They kill people with their drunk driving  
and also force society to pay for their self-inflicted health problems.
Kill all boozers!!!

Liver Transplant Recipient Admits To Third DUI
Atchison Abuzz About Man's Guilty Plea After Transplants

POSTED: 6:54 pm CST March 5, 2008

ATCHISON, Kan. -- A small town was abuzz on Wednesday after a man who had
undergone two liver transplants pleaded guilty to his third DUI in five
years.

Community members were upset about what they perceived as a lack of
responsibility by Robert Shumaker.

“Everybody does deserve a second chance, but if he’s got three DUIs and
is abusing alcohol with a liver transplant, I don’t see how he has a
chance at the liver that he’s got ever holding together,” said Raymond
McCaully Sr., of Leavenworth, Kan.

On Nov. 21, Atchison police found Shumaker, 47, parked in his car on the
outside of town, they said. He was slumped over and incoherent and his
blood-alcohol level was five times the legal limit, police said.

Shumaker's liver failure was because he suffered from hepatitis, not
because of alcohol use, Shumaker's mother said. His first transplant
didn't take, so he needed the second one, she said.

Shumaker wasn't at his home in nearby Cummings, Kan., and couldn't be
reached for comment.

“You’ve got somebody like him who doesn’t (really care) about anybody,
not even himself. Look at his body. Look how he’s abuse himself, and then
we’re going to give him a liver. No. I don’t think so," said Tammy
Schuler, of Atchison, Kan.

He is ill and has a caretaker because of his liver problems, his mother
said.

No law prevents people who abuse alcohol from receiving liver
transplants, but some hospitals require patients to demonstrate a period
of sobriety, sometimes from six to 12 months.

Shumaker will be sentenced in a couple of weeks and could spend from 90
days to a year in jail.
