The time before they got no one now just one Guy. What a waste of money. The sheriff uses the arguement that its grant monies being used. Does that money grow on trees? No it ends up being taxpayer money when all is said and done.

There weren't more because they announce that there is a check point far enough up the road you can take an alternate route if you want to avoid it. People who have nothing to hide go through, those that don't want caught go around. If they want to catch more, they need to not announce it 10 blocks before you are to stop and put units on those side streets to catch the people going around.
