Sobriety Checkpoint leads to Forcible Extraction

[88GT]

Comparing someone driving drunk to someone owning a gun is complete nonsense. A drunk driver can kill anyone at any time without making a decision to do so. His/her decision was made when they didn't prepare to not have themselves in that position ahead of time. Making that comparison would be accurate if you knew if you took your gun out it will start firing randomly through the night. If you hit something it becomes a crime. If it misses, oh well, nobody got hurt. Ridiculous? of course, guns don't randomly fire against your will. Drunks do randomly crash into innocent people.

Negligent discharge, anyone?

Imakegum, in Russia if you commit a traffic offense, they just take your car.

That sounds like your kind of law enforcement, Lonnie. Glad we live in America!
