What type of public service is this by warning offenders that they will be cited?
With so may illegal drivers on our roads all you are doing is giving them a free get out of jail card.
Great job you idiot
William,
Get a grip and a clue. We live in an open and free society in which the transparency of government is essential to maintaining liberty.
Are illegal drivers a problem? You bet! Should the be here? Heck no! However, I would propose more draconian measures to combat this problem. How about minefields and machine gun nests on the border? Or is that too extreme for you?
As an American citizen I find it appalling to have to "show my papers" as if it were Berlin in 1939. But considering this practice seems to be legally supported by the courts, I dare say the LEAST we can do is keep informed as a society of what our authorities are up to. By the way, what percentage of illegal alien drivers do you think:
A) Can read English?
B) Have regular internet access?
C) Would read the Larry Altman Crime Blog after a long day of scrubbing urinals and trimming your rose bushes?
Yeah that's what I thought...idiot.
William, do you think that many people actually read the Breeze? LOL. You are clueless son.
If you don't have a life like me...or just really bored, go post up across the street from this checkpoint and watch people get busted. It's awesome. Few months ago there was a sobriety checkpoint on Redondo Beach in between Normandie and Western and I saw so many fools get busted for DUI...it was great watching them flip out.
The best was trying to pick out the cars that were going to get busted...I made a big 4 dollars always picking the cars with shiny rims.
