I'm with you on this one Traddy. MADD has designed their tactics on campaigns that have run in Australia which are way more shocking and traumatic than anything MADD has done in Canada, and the Australian anti-drunk driving campaigns have been highly effective. Besides, I think people in general nowadays are so jaded and desensitized that it takes a little shock and awe to break through their indifference. And if these kids can't take a little bit of simulated trauma, they ain't gonna make it far in the real world. Life can be brutally harsh, so a little conditioning can only help prepare them for the reality that is looming in front of them.
All this exercise is is a little bit of simulated reality ... since when is simulating reality grounds for a law suit? Are we getting that feeble and fragile as a society?
