As of late, there has been a lot of talk about these fake drug checkpoints that cops are setting up. The supreme court however ruled that drug checkpoints were unconstitutional in the year 2000 so cops now have to use clever ways to get around that reality. The fact that the police force can essentially overturn the court’s ruling is the real problem here. The courts are here to give us fair and legal ruling on big problems that can not be solved by arguments between people like normal problems could be. If cops continue to act like they are above the law by exploiting loopholes and dodging official court rulings like this, then there is little hope for respect for our courts.  Police officers need to act like regular citizens and quit thinking they are more important than others. What the Cops Are Doing It is really disgusting that cops are going to such lengths to catch users of controlled substances. What cops will do these days is set up a fake checkpoint to get people scared. If one were to drive through the check point, they wouldn’t be in the slightest bit of trouble. But what the cops are really looking for is cars that abruptly turn around or try to ditch their stash on the road. They will then later bring in dogs to sniff out...
