Someone Really Mad at MADD
January 17th, 2007 by Jared MorrisI spoke to Regional Operations Chairman of MADD Chesapeake - Joe Sikes today and he informed me that Yesterday there was an intruder in the MADD Delaware office. According to Sikes, someone came into the office, started yelling, turning over tables and causing a general scene. The one MADD staffer who was in the building was so scared (s)he had to leave the building.
Is there any wonder that this type of thing is occurring when the press has been so malicious lately.
I’ve seen headlines “I’m angry at MADD” - “uproar over MADD’s support of OCPD”
I even heard word that one of the MADD higher ups may be in danger of leaving her post due to anger directed towards the organization.
Where do you get off treating a volunteer organization that works awful hard to keep you safer like that?
Take a look inward, find out where all the anger is coming from and stay clear of people who are actually trying to do good in the world.

There is never an excuse for this kind of behavior, Jared.
Nevertheless, I was stunned by MADD’s position on the leniency of the OCPD. One would think that if anything they would err on the side of strict enforcement of the law, not leniency for anyone.
I have trouble understanding how the 0.14 indicator, plus the speeding, plus the weaving, plus the strong odor of alcohol, plus the beer cans/bottles all over the back, would not be a strong indicator for enforcement.
Perhaps someone other than the OCPD Chief or the MADD representative can offer a logical explanation for this atrocious police decision; we have yet to receive one!!!
And btw, this is why this case has not yet been put to bed in the minds of the public.
