It has happened in at least two instances that I can think of: Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) is now advocating for a variety of policies not always oriented around drunk driving[1].

- justinclift 7y agoI was more thinking "deregister the tobacco companies and put all of their employees in prison. With life (maybe death?) sentences for the executives and senior management". Just to get it in line with the treatment of other War On Drugs substances. I mean, why should tobacco get special treatment when the other ones don't? ;)
