Police State

Feds and local police set up road block in Fort Worth, force drivers to stop, then ask them to take a breathalyser, swab them for DNA and take a blood sample.

"The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which is spending $7.9 million on the survey over three years, said participation was "100 percent voluntary" and anonymous.

But Cope said it didn't feel voluntary to her -- despite signs saying it was.

"I gestured to the guy in front that I just wanted to go straight, but he wouldn't let me and forced me into a parking spot," she said."
"An agency spokeswoman sent an email confirming the government is conducting the surveys in 30 cities across the country in an effort to reduce impaired-driving accidents."

That claim is ridiculous. This is about testing how much the people will submit to and training them to submit.

Boston police unhappy to have their cruisers monitored by GPS.

"But some officers said they worry that under such a system they will have to explain their every move and possibly compromise their ability to court street sources.
“No one likes it. Who wants to be followed all over the place?” said one officer who spoke anonymously because department rules forbid police from speaking to the media without authorization."

How ironic.

NSA blames collection errors on technology like Obamacare website. Give me a break.
