In Illinois it is illegal to opperate any motorized vehicle while under the influence. In other words it is illegal to run a push mower. My wife is a nurse. Care to guess how many loving and caring parents somehow manage to cut their childrens feet off. Or back up over their own children on "their own property"? Just because you are on your own property doesn't give you permission to be commiting all kinds of crimes. By the way, we don't own our property. We rent it from the government.
