Chicago DUI lawyer comments on MADD's selling a line of virgin drinks


This Chicago DUI lawyer has posted her dismay with MADD here, here, and here.  Now comes word of the strangest move by the Neo-Prohibitionist group, they are now selling non-alcoholic beverages.
 
 
The holiday season is just around the corner, are you ready for your guests? Or do you have a BYOB party and are not sure what to bring since it is a family affair? MADD announces an exclusive license agreement with Hill Street Marketing Inc. to produce a line of alcohol-free beverages, MADD Virgin Drinks, which will provide American consumers with a delicious and socially responsible alternative to alcoholic beverages. The line currently includes three virgin cocktails (Mojito, Margarita and Pina Colada), a virgin Lager & Lime, virgin Red and White Wine, and a virgin Sparkling White Wine.
 
"We know many people want an alternative for their guests to help encourage safe, sober and savvy driving, as well as the great taste needed to make guests feel like they are part of the party -- but without the alcohol," said Laura Dean-Mooney, MADD national president.
 
Alright, to be fair these are our neighbors to the north. This is being done by MADD in Canada.  In case you are interested in this line of non-alcoholic beverages here's their website.
 
I'll admit it, this news has left me at a lost for words.
