Double-digit DWIs

So what do you do with a loser like Kenneth Oneal?

He’s such a loser, he doesn’t even put an apostrophe in the name Oneal like actor Ryan O’Neal and thousands of other O’Neals do.

But that’s not the main reason he’s a loser. His biggest affront to life as we know it is his penchant for driving while intoxicated. Kenny has 10 — that’s right, 10 — DWI convictions.

If he had killed himself six or seven DWIs ago on some lonely stretch of road, he might have finally made a contribution to the human race … by subtracting himself from it without dragging anyone else with him.

But he didn’t. He just kept drinking and driving, endangering anyone who might be on the road near Wichita Falls.

On his latest bust, his blood-alcohol level was 0.215. Jeez, that’s nearly three times the 0.08 that the law calls drunken driving.

No. 10, however, might have been Kenny’s swan song. A jury just dropped the max on him — life in prison. I’d like to high-five all of the jurors, though I doubt they were his “peers.”

Prisons should be reserved for real dirtbags, but Oneal is an accident waiting to happen, and it could be a fatal one.

Oneal is 58. There’s no telling how much longer his booze-abused body will hang on. As far as I’m concerned, the sooner he checks out, the sooner that prison cell is freed up for another felon.
