I know that many people do not think that checkpoints are Constitutional, and I can see that. With that being said, the fact that we have to have these checkpoints just shows the ignorance of certain people. Many years ago, I lost a group of friends to a drunk driver. It simply can not be tolerated. The penalties for these people should be extremely harsh. I don't believe that they don't know what they are doing, or that they did not realize that they were that level of impaired. Everyone knows when they are plastered. We are not animals that have no concept of what is happening to us. People who drink and drive are just selfish jerkoffs.
