Law enforcement in Eugene, OR have stated they will forcibly draw blood on anyone refusing a breathalyzer this coming July 4th weekend.
Of course, drunk driving is a very serious matter. But do you agree that law enforcement can take such physical action against someone not yet convicted of a crime when they can still detain you by giving less intrusive tests, just as they have done for years?
I don’t drink period but nobody will ever force anything like that on me . I know how to draw blood too
even if you dont drink , do drugs , whats going to deter them from “suspecting” ? what can you do against the “gestapo” ??
This will only lead to other abuse of the 2nd.
Before some cop sticks me with a needle, he better prove that he is either a nurse of a doctor. I don’t drink and drive, just sayn
This could lead to quite a few problems including some passing on and peeing themselves.
$#%&!@* that
Just give the breath test…if you sober and clean you have nothing to hide, take the damn test….why does everyone have to make this such a big deal…lose someone to a drunk or drugged driver and see what lengths you would support to keep them off the highway! You are given a choice here.
Better have medical training. Seems there’s a violation of some sort here.
normally a search warrant is issued to take blood from an unwilling person, so my guess is they have omitted that from their story.
First of all if I were in that situation I would insist on on a paramedic to draw my blood. Not a cop with limited training. Why go to all that trouble though? If they refuse a breathalyzer, just arrest them?
