So you defend these tactics? I assume your husband, son or boyfriend doesn't drive a white van.

I drive a white van Sam, and if the police asked me to get out of my van and allow them to inspect inside, I would. They obviously have a reason to ask, it's not like they just decided they would pull over various people and look inside for kicks.

These drivers were probably refusing. If that's what it takes to get this killer, then that's what it takes. I like my friends and family too much to want to screw around nit picking issues.

I keep hearing people scream about the Constitution. Well, how about the part where we citizens have some responsibility for protecting ourselves and each other? I don't very much like these people who are running around screaming about their rights when their fellow citizens are getting picked off like sitting ducks. If we can't depend on each other during a crunch then the Constitution won't matter much anyway. It was written for a moral people who felt a sense of responsibility toward their community. Not a bunch of selfish A@@holes who can only think about themselves.

I keep hearing people quote "if you care more about security then liberty, then you deserve neither". That's twisting words to suit a message. As far as I'm concerned, those who lack the commonsense to recognize the seriousness of the situation and cooperate are from the bottom of the gene pool and deserve what they get.

Maybe because the police over there are so brainless?

Once they catch the sniper then white vans being searched will stop. I don't want my brother, sister, aunt, mom or children targeted by the sniper so I say continue with roadblocks.

I drive a white van and my husband drives it at times, and my son also drives a white van. Do you have any suggestions what else the police should do who are looking for a shooter in a white van? Of course I would imagine if you were a middle eastern male between the ages of 18 and 40 with a " I Love Osoma tee shirt" on, they would probably let you through.
