"Booze Lobby Targets Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong"

That's not really fair, now...

It's stupid regardless of whose pictures they use.

Obviously, Billie Joe made a mistake, and it's totally indefensible and was an irresponsible action (especially being a father...) but there's really no need to target a person for one such mistake versus giving accounts of the harm it's done in general - and I really don't understand what they're trying to do with the pictures when they want to legalize some kind of drinking and driving...

blarg what I wanted to say I don't think actually came out the way I ment it to on here. It made sense in my head, but not here. So, Yeah ignore me.

^ No doubt, but I think the main thing people are taking issue with is if he really deserves to be labeled as a "hard-core drunk driver" for one mistake five years ago.

Or it might have to do with him being twice over the legal limit. .18 is pretty fucking drunk.

people have been talking shit about billie and anything he does for years. that company is just trying to get people talking about it. which is what we're doing right now. i'm boycotting the thread(no offense to the threadmaker) to send the message that just because you talk shit about somebody doesn't mean we pay any attention to you and your shit. Fuck you you liquored up bastards. :nuke:

This pisses me off. He made a big, terrible mistake, and I realize that, but c'mon, it was 5 years ago. Let's let it go. If he weren't famous, he'd be able to quietly put the incident in the past, and move on. But because he's a celebrity, they have to throw it in his face, drudging up bad memories? Why? It's not fair at all. He made a mistake, and I'm sure it's one he sorely regrets. I don't think Booze Lobby took into consideration that the people that they are using in their adds are real people who have families and careers, and don't need this crap being brought up.

Well that's stupid... "hardcore" drunk drivers like Billie Joe. Didn't he get caught DWI once? A "hardcore" drunk driver, haha. What's that mean? You get caught?

No, drink driving is not a big mistake, drink driving and killing your best mate is a big mistake, that will haunt you for life. Just drink driving and being caught will not/

Drink Driving is a twattish thing to do...just because you're lucky enough not to kill anybody, doesn't make it anymore right.

Well drink driving is obviously a mistake if that can happen.

I sent them an email and left them all of my thoughts and feelings! Here is the address if anyone else is as outraged as I am about this: http://www.interlockfacts.com/about.cfm#contact

I can't believe they even put the words "repeat offender" under his image on this site, implying that he maybe one when we know he isn't!

I would love know how many people in their organisation that have been arrested for some kind of minor offence or parking ticket or something!

These people disgust me, great role models they are teaching us to put down others!

I am going to take up drink driving in protest!

He was twice over the legal limit! His B.A.C. was too high for him to walk somewhere properly.

^ But it was a one time thing. Although it was bad, and he was way over the limit, it only happened once, and he's kept a clean slate ever since with the law. They make him out to be an alcoholic mess who drives drunk all the time, and that just isn't the case.

Are you seriously comparing drunk driving with getting a parking ticket?

I cant believe somebody would take up drink driving to protest over something like this! what kind of numbnut idea is that?

I`m sure Billie would be proud of you for that idea!

good grief... the guy was used for this because of the size of the fan base! doesnt matter how many times he did it. he was caught being a bloody idiot! they are using him to get across the fact that drink driving is a seriously stupid thing to do!

I`m pretty sure he wouldnt want any of his fans being stupid enough to go out and make the same mistake he did!

The thing about taking up drunk driving as a protest is SO OBVIOUSLY a joke.

I don't think it matters how serious his offence was. He's been arrested and punished according to the law already. Once that has happened to someone they should be free to go on with their lives. The media shouldn't be allowed to choose to punish someone futher in this disproportionate way.
