[edit] DAMM
As the article itself acknowledges, there is no such organization. There are just jokes (t-shirts and the like) about it. Delete as hoax. Angr/tɔk tə mi 22:35, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Delete nn, I've seen those shirts but it doesn't rate an article. --Etacar11 23:00, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Oddly enough, "Drunks Against Mad Mothers" gets thousands of Google hits. I don't think it should really get an article, but toss a redirect to the Mothers_Against_Drunk_Driving article and mention it in a section about criticism or references or trivia or something.

- Redirect as per Andrew Lenahan, though I personaly find the idea of this group rather offensive. 23skidoo 03:06, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- James Hetfield of Metallica was once pictured in the tshirt, I wonder if that's why it gets so many hits... --Etacar11 03:19, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Your reaction to it is precisely WHY so many hats, t-shirts and bumper stickers with this message sold. Still, delete it as non-encyclopaedic. There is validity in the idea of a mention on MADD, but I envision a flame war if one tried it. Unsinkable 28 June 2005 20:29 (UTC)

- Do not delete it is good to note it somewhere - this is why I use and love Wikipedia - to find some things which might seem irrellevant to anything, but some people do not know it and I find it helpfull that I can find some old humour and history of where does it come from, and recently I have started to use wiki instead of google, since pop-culture related facts are better explained in here.

- Redirect. I have already merged its content into Mothers Against Drunk Driving, and included the bit about James Hetfield. func(talk) 8 July 2005 01:44 (UTC)
