I totally agree that this Police Officer was out of line. If there was probable cause all he needed to do was get a warrant. They issue them 24/7 so there is no excuse for not getting one. I am not sure how it works when a driver is unconscious but if you are conscious and refuse a sobriety test you automatically have surrendered your driving privileges. So the driver had the right to refuse had he been awake. That is something you agree to when you sign your drivers license to begin with. It is very important to understand that driving on public roads is and always has been a legal privilege, not a right, But I do not agree with stereotyping all cops as bad. Most police are good cops. But even the good cops are going to ignore the bad if every time a bad cop is dealt with they are all publicly ostracized. There is no way I agree with BLM, NWA or any other call to rise in civil chaos and kill or otherwise attack our law enforcement community as a whole. Any more than I would condemn every nurse because there is a number of them that provide drugs illegally, commit sadistic acts on patients to include acts of euthenasia as mercy killings. If there was no law there would be no civility and noone to call when you are actually in danger.
Truth is the impression of reality words create.
