License, Registration and Blood
Sometimes I hear things in the media and immediately think WTF! This happened when I saw that local police will be taking individuals blood if they refuse a breathalyzer test this holiday weekend. Does this seem intrusive to anyone else out there. I understand trying to keep drunk drivers of the roads but I also believe in personal rights. If an individual declines to take a breath test then haul their asses to jail, but taking their blood on the street! Hell, why not have SuperCuts there as well and get a hair sample. I can see it now--I get a noise complaint, cop thinks he smells something illegal busts through the door and starts taking everyones blood including my Chihuahuas. In times of paranoia caused by terrorist attacks, identity theft etc people are more willing to give up their personal rights to feel safe. This is the very time that people need stand up for their rights. Once you let big brother in the house it is very difficult to get him out. So enjoy your long weekend and get those veins ready!
