INTO THE BELLY OF THE BEAST

Mothers Against Drunk Driving: Organization that has much more to do with Virtual Prohibition than with drunk driving or mothers. This is part of MADD’s public policy page. Read this carefully and critically. It is a good place to start browsing around MADD’s massive propaganda site. Wonder in amazement how MADD can do these things and maintain exemption from taxes as a 501 C (3) charitable organization. You can also find links to other anti-alcohol organizations there.

National Highway Transportation Safety Administration: This site is the propaganda clearinghouse for federal DUI policy. A few salient features:

• Transportation Equity Act for 21st Century. President Clinton’s "thank you" to MADD:
  http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/nhtsa/whatsup/tea21/index.html
• These are self-serving bogus studies commissioned by NHTSA to support it’s political agenda. All but the North Carolina study have been highly criticized by a GAO review. Note that the North Carolina study is listed last.
  http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/people/injury/alcohol/limit.08/index.html
• This is the results of a study that supposedly re-certifies thirty year old field testing procedures that are intended for use against low BAC drivers and will allow police to justify arresting people for "drunk driving" even though they are not impaired.
  http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/people/injury/alcohol/limit.08/!SFSTREP.pdf
• This is the "Partners In Progress" site. This is the master plan for the DUI gulag in the 21st Century. Full of lies, overstatements and distorted statistics, it’s most amazing feature is that it represents a government that is urging the aggressive arrests of hundreds of thousands of its own citizens without a single word of concern that hundreds of thousands of innocent citizens may be caught up in its web. Read this whole thing. Read with a critical eye. Read between the lines and think about the unspoken intent and purpose of this MADD driven agenda.
  http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/people/injury/alcohol/partners/index.htm
• This is the NHTSA’s "Impaired Driving Program" site. This site urges as many arrests as possible in order to fund other police operations. Not a word of concern about innocent citizens getting arrested for a crime they didn’t commit Read it and let the bureaucrats in charge hear what you think about their program.
