I was pulled over for dui a few months ago, Take in mind the cops knew I was high. I told them I was smoking plus showed them the blunt in my car. They made me do the stupid lil walking test also. So I sence I wasnt 'stable' to walk away from the insedent with my car being towed, they brought me to jail for the night. Then they decided to take blood tests, after they knew I was high. Those hospital 'emergency blood test samples' are expensive. I am pissed off at the fact that the 'law' here in wisconsin invades peoples privacy by pulling blood samples. To some people it might be against there religon or beliefs. I read that police officers are being trained to pull blood samples upon pulling over people 'suspected' of dui. The government is squeezing the grip on peoples freedoms. Idk just something I was thinking about.

If you're drunk behind the wheel, you're endangering your life, and others around you. It's that simple. And I think if they have to resort to pulling blood to reveal if you're drunk or not then yes...That's not putting a grip on freedoms, that's protecting the public. Putting a grip on our freedoms is pot being illegal to grow/possess/smoke, etc...Pot should be a legal alternative to individuals who don't want to get drunk to lift our spirits..Why can't we get stoned to lift our spirits?? It's proven to be almost no threat to your health...It's a lot safer than alcohol, and it's non toxic. Not dissing alcohol, everyone should be able to consume what they want, but please don't get drunk and drive...
