I overreacted........pure and simple
I apologize for letting that whole thing get me so wound up I have been under a lot of pressure lately but that was no excuse to over react the way I did... I still do not think that telling Sudsman that if he did not try and stop this guy from getting a car that any resulting deaths would mean he has the blood on his hands was very fair but I did not have to get so out of control...... I met Appnut myself once about 6 years ago and he is a nice guy. I hope Appnut and all here will accept my apology....I am man enough to admit my fault in this and hope you guys will forgive me for over reacting to the whole thing.

my opinion
If he works for you, say yes. If he does not work for you, say no.

It's not your responsability
Sudsman, if he wants to ruin his life who are you to prevent him?
People make their own beds and so they have to lay in them, it's not for you to say what he can and cannot do, or whether or not he can get a car. Just my 2 cents.

Self-Solving Problem, I Think...
...If this fellow is buying a car from a buy-here-pay-here lot, he's going to need to show a valid driver's licence as proof of identity, as well as proof that he's licenced.
If he has no licence, that should pretty much give any reputable lot pause.
He'll also need a D/L to get insurance, which will be required on the car by the lot. Buy-here-pay-heres generally require full coverage on the cars they sell. Again, this guy won't be able to produce what's needed to comply.
Unless laws and the DMV's regs are sharply different in Texas, this guy's ineligibility will surface at some point in the purchasing process.

He has bought 3 cars before and had NO D/L
or insurance they only want the money . They charge him more but one can get anything if the price is right! There are thousands here with out D/L or insurance right now.. Although he is not, most are illegals. There are over 200,000 in Fort Worth at this time. All the same as he.

Texas has always been very liberal when it comes to liquor and cars. I used to go down to Austin for the Big Ten Rowing Camp every spring break in college. One of the big draws was that you could have open alcohol in the car, and out on the street. Try that in Iowa, and you'd lose your license.
Ah the memories: partying all night on sixth street, crashing six to a room at the Super 8, then hitting the water at dawn. Those were the days....

Well, Remember....
I did say reputable lot. I guess where there's a will- and the smell of money- there's a way.
Until you hit bottom. Which in this case, I hope happens sooner rather than later, because it sounds like this guy is headed for real trouble if he doesn't get into recovery.
Here's hoping for the best in this instance. These situations are tough.
