McNair's Blood-Alcohol Level
Why the HELL is it making headlines that Steve McNair's blood alcohol level was twice the legal DRIVING limit when he was shot while asleep on his couch?? The headline I saw said "McNair's Blood Alcohol Was Twice Limit". What limit?? There is no limit! He was not driving. There's no evidence that he HAD been driving. As far as I know there is no legal limit on your blood alcohol level if you're sitting on your couch at home! And my guess is at least half of the people over 17 years old in this country went to sleep with a buzz on the 4th of July. I know I did! They could also write a headline saying "McNair's Blood Alcohol Was 20 Times the Limit!" and then half way through the article mention it was 20 times the legal limit for airline pilots.....but GREAT HEADLINE! It's Ridiculous! The story also says Sahel Kazemi, the girl who shot him, had "trace" amounts of marijuana in her system. Since they don't mention any trace in McNair's system I read that to mean he was clean....but of course they don't point that out in the article. What a blatant attempt to smear McNair and make a story out of nothing to grab headlines! There is no "legal limit" that applies to McNair's death while sleeping on his couch so leave it alone and don't make a headline out of it. Have some respect for the man and his friends and family media people!
