A bartender in France was convicted of
manslaughter for doing his job: getting someone stank ass drunk.
Gilles Crepin served 56 year old Renaud Prudhomme 30 shots of alcohol
which he drank in a minute because fuck rational thinking. He did
this to beat a previous record of 55 shots which was posted at the
bar called Le Starter. Should be changed to Le Finisher.
In case
you're wondering just how much booze that is, its about 2.4 liters.
The closest image to that is a big ass jug of Mr. Clean. Its a lot of
any liquid let alone alcohol. Prudhomme's daughter said that Crepin
encouraged this dangerous game and should be held responsible for the
outcome. Yeah...no. There is this crazy thing called personal
responsibility.
Ron Haskins has a great statement about it saying “Personal
responsibility is the willingness to both accept the importance of
standards that society establishes for individual behavior and to
make strenuous personal efforts to live by those standards. But
personal responsibility also means that when individuals fail to meet
expected standards, they do not look around for some factor outside
themselves to blame. The demise of personal responsibility occurs
when individuals blame their family, their peers, their economic
circumstances, or their society for their own failure to meet
standards.”
