Police pulling cars to the side of the road WITHOUT ANY probable cause is spreading across the country like wildfire.
http://science.slashdot.org/story/13/12/......na-tests I heard this on the local news channel this morning, so I googled the incident to see if the story was accurate. It is. There is more to the story than my link has to say about this (according to the radio news). Seems that "road workers" are blocking the road and helping the Police to get people to stop. The cheek swab is strickly "voluntary" as well as answering the list of questions. Very few motorists are refusing to answer the questions and taking the swab. What worries me is how the majority of the public are nothing more than Lemmings these day's. When the majority are willing to do whatever they are told, without question, then the minority who wish to excersise their Constitutional rights, will find out soon that they have no rights. If we want to keep our Constitutional rights, we ALL need to excersise those rights. Use it or Lose it. It's our choice. Iven

You mean lemmings like paranoid conspiracy theorists? But honestly, the balance of some of both those lemmings helps keep things interesting.

Where did I say anything about a conspiracy? I was just making an observation of how quickly so many are will to jump when an authority figure says jump.
I prefer to Excersise my Constitutional rights. Many have died thinking that they were protecting those rights. I am not willing to throw my freedoms in the gutter and disrespect those who gave their lives so I can live in a free country. Iven

People were asked to ask an off-stage voice questions and to give increasing electric shots for wrong answers. As the voltage increased, the off-stage people began to cry and beg to be released, the people pushing the button were told by the "authority figure" that they would invalidate the entire study if they didn't keep pushing the button. I think 75-80% of them kept pushing the button no matter how the personally felt about what (they thought) was going on. The "authority figure" kept telling them it was OK that's what they did.

Ed, the topic was more about the Police State pulling people over so they could be asked questions and maybe get a cheek swab. All without probable cause. Not about the Lemmings (that was just a side note).

Do you support ALL constitutional rights or just those you agree with? Second amendment for example?
