    He's referring to the New Mexico searches. Consequently, more people have come forward having similar encounters.

    What you don't realize, and most Americans don't realize, is the reason you don't hear more about this stuff (which happens quite a bit more than you are alluding to) is that if nothing is found, the case goes away. There is no challenge to the behavior because there are no charges.

    So that leaves the person (whom is usually poor) with the tantalizing option of getting a lawyer to file a Section 1983 case against the police/federal government.

    Have you ever sued the government? I have, and it's really fucking hard most of the time. So just because more people don't 'come forward' with 1983 lawsuits doesn't mean it isn't happening. It is. But the method of curbing the behavior would require finding lawyers that don't mind suing against the odds and don't need to make money to eat. Tough call.

    I was waited on by a very pregnant, at least 7 months along, server at Hooter's last night.

    Technically, it isn't false advertising because I was given hooters, yet I feel short changed on my experience.


    Wood paneling and local Americana adorning the walls? Check

    A suggestive menu reminding me, yes, I am surrounded by mummeries? Check

    A server with both a bountiful bosom and mate enticing status?.....

    Prosecutors and cops must fucking love social media.

    Not like a lot of people here have room to judge this girl though. Most people here are older and they post drunk babble on here every weekend, even I have on occasion. It's just no one here has killed anyone yet while driving drunk or gotten caught doing something equally stupid or illegal while under the influence. Except Dixie.

    I've never driven drunk, so I'll take up the mantle of condemning this woman with the appropriate amount of judgment and scorn for the rest of the TIBers and TIBettes.

    I was the survivor of a drunk-driving accident, the driver killed his best friend and the girl who was out with me that night. It can happen to anybody, so the best thing to do is just not do it.

    Dixie was the first person I thought of when I read this.

    I worked in a prosecutor's office for one summer after my first year of law school. Prosecutors love social media. I went through so many facebook print offs and twitter feeds it was insane. Getting a search warrant for a cell phone is even better. Nothing is more creepy than looking through someone's deleted text messages and data. Out of the ten or so phone data I looked through that summer, not one of them didn't have several pictures of drugs and naked women.

    The only people that love social media more than cops and prosecutors are divorce lawyers. That shit is easy leverage for them and can be a gold mine of information about a soon-to-be ex-spouse.

    I think when we talked about Dixie earlier the consensus was that we've all been drunk and done stupid things, the shocking thing about Dixie is that he was remorseless and blamed other people for his actions.

    Its one of those things, getting one DUI is a bad decision, a bad night, two you need help, three you just don't give a fuck.

    Piloting a metal object that weighs thousands of pounds drunk certainly isn't a fucking joke. If your fist can't dent a brick, and a car can plough through a brick wall, what does that say of the capabilities?

    Since people haven't wised up too well about it, I propose they should have drunk driving lanes in the bad drunk driving territories. Put it on the outside and drop it six inches from the rest of the road like the gutter of a bowling lane. Then it's just gas and brakes and they only have each other to crash into.

    I once got hit by two drunk drivers simultaneously. I was on my first date with a girl who later turned out to be a cheating whore.

    I was relatively fine as was my date, I believe because we were in a truck, and one car ran into the back of us while the other T-boned the bed of the truck.

    There were a bunch of ambulances at the scene, and last I heard (this was years ago) both drivers and their passengers were in critical condition. I felt really bad for the victims. The officers I met from the Austin police department were some of the nicest, most caring professionals I've ever encountered. That incident is why I still donate to my local PD.

    I've often wondered why some of you would be bothered posting on TiB when you are out somewhere interacting with real, live people. When I post drunken babble here, I'm comfortably settled at home, or maybe occasionally bored in a hotel room on a business trip. The chances of me posting about how drunk I am, then getting into a car, approach zero.

    I'm positive at some point in their adult life that every person alive has done something with blatant disregard for their own well-being and that of the people around them, probably several times or even frequently. No one gives a fuck about the consequences of their actions until they have to face the. People like to make a spectacle of other people when they fuck up meanwhile they're doing the exact same thing or something that could have a potentially equally negative outcome but they find a way to justify it to themselves. I sure as fuck am not innocent. Really, anyone who use mind-altering substances with any amount of frequency is probably just as guilty as this chick. Even if you don't get behind the wheel of a car, fucking with your mind and body in such a manner is already setting yourself up for failure, short and long-term.

    This is going completely against my paranoia of the government using online admissions of crime against me, but fuck it. As recently as 5 months ago I was driving wasted on multiple occasions. Like, no business being on the road whatsoever, passing out behind the wheel drunk. Being completely honest, I'm not sorry at all that I put myself or other people in danger doing so even though objectively I know I was completely in the wrong and should feel sorry, I just don't. I know plenty of people who have gotten DUIs, who have gotten hurt driving drunk and people who have died in alcohol related car accidents. I'm pretty sure everyone in the developed world has. Now, I've made a conscious decision not to drive drunk again because it isn't worth going to prison for when I can just get a fucking cab, but I still get drunk at least 2 nights every week and in that state of mind I could easily slip up. Hell, being drunk I could easily fuck up and hurt myself or other people without ever getting in a car.

    Maybe this is just a really shitty and pessimistic way of looking at things, but I think the term "jury of one's peers" has an unintended deeper meaning, in that when you go to trial for the crimes you have committed, the people on the jury are going to be criminals just like you. You're getting charged for a DUI and two people on the jury go to the bar after proceedings and commit the same crime they are judging you for, someone else on the jury is probably a rapist, guaranteed at least one drug abuser and a whole assortments of frauds and cheats make up the remaining spots. Oh yeah, and the judge is corrupt and the prosecutor looks at kiddy porn. Peers indeed.

    I really don't know why I've been in such a shitty mood recently.

    This confuses and intrigues me. You really don't care that you could have killed innocent people? Would you have felt bad if you had killed innocent people?
