Part of the mission is to study individual behavior to judge their compliance with this kind of crap. Believe me, this is just a test run for the real “check points” to come.

Okay, call me a tin-hat-wearing-conspiracy-theorist, but I am certain that these DNA roadblocks are nothing more than tests to see how docile and submissive to authority the American population has become.

Wikipedia says Reading’s current mayor is a Democrat.
This incident - if true - might be useful as a campaign issue for any opposition that is present in that city.
There may be none, for all I know.

They pulled the same stunt in North Fort Worth last month. At 1st the police denied being part of the intimidation but finally fessed up.
People were waved over by police and made to feel they could not refuse the “voluntary” survey.

ABUSE of public funds, public servants (police officers), public property (police cars), and power.

“Am I being detained?”
“Under what authority are you questioning me?”
“No problem; may I see your warrant?”
“I am leaving now.”

Heim said city police were hired for site security only...The above is a lie. The police were hired for intimidation...

” nothing more than tests to see how docile and submissive to authority the American population has become.”
I’m not sure they are collecting DNA- drug detection through saliva is common in the EU.
But if I WERE collecting DNA I’d look for correlations between certain genes and the willingness to comply with searches like this. (I know, no DNA from people who don’t comply, but even one-sided any correlations would be interesting).

The city that allowed this - for their police offices to be used to intimidate citizens - should be sued.

Sorry, but, I’d have been one of the folks pulled over a few people would have gotten a good, loud cussin’ out.
