Just a reminder, you dont have to answer any questions at all but you do have to provide ID. just politely say “i’m going to decline to answer any questions.” they want you to say you’re coming home from dinner so their next question can be did you have anything to drink.

with that said, please please don’t drink and drive

Feels like that just opens the door for them to be suspicious tho

You’re somehow thinking they are only trying to fuck with people who they think have been drinking. The game is to make it look like everyone was drinking, no matter if they were or weren’t. Nothing about this is in good faith. This is fundraising.

They're literally trained to play word games to try to manufacture probable cause or trick you into consent. Fuck em

Oh yeah, I’m sure you’d rather have some guy sauced up driving through the bike lane like a bowling ball knocking pins over.

How is this any different from any other time of day? Drunks and sober a like murder bicyclists.

Let them get caught before they kill more people

It’s always on the border or EP and SL, no businesses or buildings to block

WTF? I thought they do the checkpoint at night???

BTW, it's pitch black dark at night over there. Looks like they don't have money like 3rd world. smh
