This very thread was created to share the video of the TN state trooper that trampled on a mans constitutional rights during a supposed DUI roadblock - even though he was never asked if he had been drinking.

 

Where it has gone from there has been the natural progression discussing situations that have occurred recently that were in line with the subject at hand.

 

If you wish to start a thread about "police officers shot dead because they stopped someone for a minor violation, and did no more than walk up to the window of the car" then feel free.  The button is labeled 'Post New Topic' and is found at the top right hand corner of the screen......

Of all of the DUI arrests I have made over the years, I have never had to ask a drunk person if they had been drinking. You should be able to tell without asking. Once again, according to SCOTUS, the checkpoint was legal. The trampling did not occur, and I won't comment either way, until the guy refused to comply with the lawful order. Once again, go to findlaw.com and see for yourself. Don't go bashing the police for doing their job at a lawful DUI checkpoint because one guy cops an attitude. No pun intended.
