Hell, at $60 a pop I'll drive around and find them.
10 times and you got a new Glock. On the flip side, I see this as a huge violation... But the article does contradict it's self... It says they are not out to arrest anyone, they will call you a cab... Then says there will be LE on scene to process DUI cases... Which is it? Can't have it both ways...

So everyone here that says "for $60, they'd do it". Really? You'd summit to the questionnaire and the saliva or blood test (DNA collecting)?
My privacy is worth more than $60. |

hop on YouTube and search for checkpoints of this nature. You are likely to find a lot of dip s**** Hulu make really stupid choices but justify it for the right reasons. No one wants bad things to happen to others. No one wants a person to endanger others by breaking the law. That being said, justifying stops, seizures of property, thought crime, or any other unconstitutional practices is just plain wrong. if we installed a breathalyzer in every car standard in order for the vehicle to start that would cut down on DUI's tremendously. Granted there are ways around that. At the same time though you are sacrificing little bit of freedom at a time for security and safety. It is a dangerous world we live in, it is not the responsibility of law enforcement agencies or government officials to directly and soley provide for your safety. It is an individual self inherent right AND responsibility. LEO's are enablers and work as a deterrent by bringing those who violate laws to justice. it was the Declaration of Independence, not the declaration of interdependence. They cannot buy my compliance and they certainly cannot force it. "Some of the worst things in history were done with the best intentions..." Dr. Grant, Jurrasic Park III

I won't stop. Period.
I wanna see how they justify being pulled over at gunpoint, tased, etc for not stopping at a 'voluntary checkpoint'.. _________________ NO DISASSEMBLE!

Or maybe they do realize it....which is why they 'need' MRAPs... If they lost 1 or 2 men on every 10th door they kicked in, they'd give up real quick.
