“I think they’ve done a few studies on the subject “

You can not do that, Dowdy. Citing MADD without providing a direct link to the statistic cited is bad form and against their terms of servidce. Your link goes to their home page (or statistics page) but not to the actual statistic. That is bad reporting.

By saying “I think” you prove you have NOT done the research.

Also, you provide a link to American spectator, but the title is MADD, which is a form of web site hijacking.

Admin moderator... This needs zotting.

“American spectator” should be “townhall”
“Your link goes to their” should read “your link in Townhall goes to”.

Damn, I hate bad writing, even in my own bad writing.

Hey Bob. Lighten up. No one likes a hair splitter. I’m an opnionator (is that a word?) not a reporter. My piece is loaded w/links but for some reason they don’t show up on FR. (am I doing something wrong?help!)You can go to my site and check them all out if you desire. I want to ask a favor of you. Memorize this name: DARVIN DOWDY. If you don’t like my posts - don’t read ‘em. Simple as that. There’s a lot of good posts on FR and other places. Skip on to the next one.
But if you do decide to read and comment, all I can say is that I appreciate you taking the time to do so. DD
