Quote:A Virginia legislator pulled over on suspicion of intoxicated driving Sunday in Christiansburg left with a warning, not a charge — and could not have been cited even if the police officer wanted to because of a provision of the Virginia Constitution.

Del. Chris Hurst, D-Montgomery, was stopped about 2 a.m. and blew a .085%, a result above the .08% legal limit for blood alcohol, in a field breath test that would not have been admissible in court, according to an account Christiansburg officials released late Tuesday. Hurst passed other sobriety tests and was released.

Quote:A Southwest Virginia legislator who was pulled over on suspicion of intoxicated driving early Sunday left with a warning, not a charge — and could not have been cited even if the police officer wanted to because of a provision of the Virginia Constitution regarding immunity during General Assembly sessions.

Del. Chris Hurst, D-Montgomery, was stopped in Christiansburg about 2 a.m. and blew a 0.085%, a result above the 0.08% legal limit for alcohol, in a field breath test that would not have been admissible in court, according to an account Christiansburg officials released Tuesday. Hurst passed other sobriety tests and was released.

These are the ones that want to take away free speech, the 2A, and to make it easier to murder unborn babies. These are the ones that also want to strip online students of any grant money just because they are online and not on -campus to be controlled.

While it is true delegates and senators have immunity during the legislative session, I find it unfair that this person will probably not receive any kind of punishment within the legislative branch whatsoever. It also shows the hypocrisy of these people that you will charge someone who isn't a delegate or senator, but not someone who is if legislation is in session. Crazy.
