Tell you one thing about Chicago for all the grief it gets. The cops are pretty cool. Un less your some scumbag gang banger they’d just as soon give you dressing down..and as long ad you day sorry sir I’m heading home. They let you go. They got bigger fish to fry. No road blocks or anything.
One of the things I really don’t like about this, is I can’t be sure where that needle has been before they stick it in me to get blood. I can easily see getting AIDs or something because a cop forgot to use a clean needle. No thanks!
Hmmmm. Now I wonder why they aren’t doing this on the South Side of Chicago. Actually, no I don’t. This is not a safety enforcement operation, this is purely a test to see how much resistance there will be to enacting a police state. If the people of Texas comply, then they can assume the rest of America will as well.
Ping...some very scary stuff here!!!
I think Texas has turned to the dark side..
We are all pucked.
“Officer, I’m exercising my 4th and 5th Amendment rights, and respectfully refuse.”
“If I’m being charged, I want an attorney.”
“If not, I’d like to be on my way, thank you.”
“It’s ridiculous,” Peter Schulte, a former Texas police officer and prosecutor, told the New York Daily News earlier this year. “I was a law enforcement officer for 16 years and I never saw anything like it.”
This isn't the first time a survey has been conducted. PIRE has been doing it for the NHTSA for some years now.

Four "national roadside surveys" have previously been conducted (1973 , 1986 , 1996 , 2007 ) to obtain data on this issue. In these surveys, drivers were randomly selected from weekend night (and Friday day in the 2007 survey) traffic on representative roadways across the 48 contiguous United States. In the first three surveys, once the driver pulled to the side of the road, s/he was asked to provide a breath sample and to answer a few questions regarding her/his drinking and driving behavior and the current trip. In the 2007 survey, for the first time, drivers were also asked to provide a voluntary oral fluid and blood sample, and to answer questions on drug use.
