Anyone who works a job whether it be a police officer or the lady at the local Starbucks, we have to show a bit of respect and civilized behavior. Ask yourself, do you appreciate people testing you and giving you a hard time at your job? The person who created this video was purposely trying to give the officer a hard time. In return for the hard time the officer was given, the officer gave the video creator a hard time. It seems like a fair exchange.

Before passing judgement on the officer in the video, ask yourself if you would appreciate someone giving you a hard time at your work. There must have been times in the past when someone gave you a hard time at your work and how did you deal with it? How did it make you feel? This is the officers job and its something he was assigned to do. He didnt wake up one day and choose to setup a DUI checkpoint. His superiors decided to set it up and he was involuntarily assigned to work it.

Write letters and meet with the political leadership and the head of the department. You are always free to protest with signs and the like in a civilized way. You can write posts on websites and send letters to the editor. However, the wrong way is to give someone a hard time at their job and thwart the checkpoint in some type of devious manner.
