MADD is an organization for people to blame society for their losses that stems from their own guilt mostly because of bad their own bad parenting. So they need to stop their NAZI like attack on society becuase the police are getting motivated by them in making FALSE DUI arrests for no reason other than getting commendations by MADD so they can increase the overtime the police get for going to court. The Miami police DUI taskforce officer can each make an extra $25,000 a year on arrests and they list eachother as witnesses so that they all show up to get the overtime. That IS illegal but prosecutors turn a blind eye toward it. I’ve heard of many stories of several officers abusing this (Closius, Davenport, Slimak) DUI laws are designed so that you are presumed guilty. So when CHUCK gets in power all the INSANE bills that MADD has drafted will be going into effect. Just take a cab everywhere from now on even if you are not drinking.

It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences.” — C. S. Lewis
And sometimes, like today, we get omnipotent moral busybodies shilling for the robber baron. Whee!

If keeping church and state seperate wasn’t hard enough, now we have corporations working hand in hand with the pompus church of the nanny state. I don’t think it gets mentioned enough that church and commerce should be seperate too.

The Obama administration are not just authoritarians but moralistic authoritarians.
