Pete Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 In a local town the police raided a steak house 9:00 last night, sealed all the doors then gave everyone at the bar a breathalyzer. How the !@#$ can they get away with that? If I was sitting at the bar and asked me to take a breathalyzer I would of told them to go !@#$ themselves and if they had a problem with that they could call my lawyer(my sister). Seriously what the hell is going on with our country? !@#$ the government! !@#$ democrats! !@#$ republicans! !@#$ you big brother! The land of the free- yeah right. Now that I said "!@#$ the government" I am sure they will waste thousands of tax dollars tracking me. !@#$ the patriot act! Some words from the late great Bill Hicks- The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey – don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride ..." And we ... kill those people. Ha ha, "Shut him up. We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. Jesus murdered; Martin Luther King murdered; Malcolm X murdered; Gandhi murdered; John Lennon murdered; Reagan ... wounded. But it doesn't matter because: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace. Thank you very much, you've been great. Sound effect of three shots, Hicks pretends to fall down dead, lights go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant buy beer after 8 or on Sundays. You cant have two drinks in front of you at the same time-ie a shot and beer. The police were looking for someone over the limit so they could get the bar and bartender in trouble for serving an intoxicated person. Giving everyone at the bar a breathalyzer? Thats bull sh-- and unconstitutional! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time you are at the casino try and order a snifter of booze and a beer. There have been a few times a bar would not give me two drinks. Today I stopped by a local place, ordered a Grand Marnier and Heinken and I had to keep one drink off the bar and switch. My friends were bartending and said the liquor commission has been busting balls all over the shore and to make sure I didnt have two drinks in front of me. What a bunch of bull sh--. I hate this state! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Fong Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Dude, could you find a link for this story? Because it sounds insane. It sounds like something the Thai police used to do when I lived in Thailand. They'd bust into a night club lock the place up tight as a drum and give everyone drug tests. A buddy of mine was stuck in one of those raids and didn't get out until 9am the next morning and about $50 poorer because he had to pay a "Fine" (bribe) because he didn't have his passport on him at the time.

ASCI Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Sobriety Tests Are Becoming Part of the School DayNew York Times, NY, March 3, 2005 For years, schools across the country have deployed breath analyzers at proms, pep rallies and other after-school events to catch students who arrived drunk or smuggled in alcohol. After some resistance and fevered debate, student advocates and even lawyers gradually came to accept that schools were within their rights to use every means to ensure that students were not toting six-packs and liquor bottles to after-school, night and weekend events. Quietly though, a few districts around the country, from Indiana to Connecticut to Long Island, have begun to integrate breath-testing devices into the regular school day, a move that adds a new wrinkle to the ongoing struggle between students' privacy rights and a school's duty to limit drug and alcohol abuse. Schools say they need to ensure that no students are drinking in class. Civil rights lawyers worry that high school students pulled out of class and forced to take a breath-alcohol test could be unfairly stigmatized for goofy or strange behavior. What happened to the Bar goers is just the next logical step from testing students. You should know by now that the government sees us as little mindless children that need to be protected from ourselves. See the seat belt laws, smoking laws ect...
