If there's any more drama today I think CU is going to need a sobriety checkpoint.

How dare you say that??? Just who do you think you are anyway???
(Sorry, just trying to cause some drama, but I've never been that great at it. Comedy, sure. Drama, not so much.)

Based on the locations of all their checkpoints, I'm astonished at how bad the cops are at finding drunk drivers.

DUI checkpoints are just interdiction stops. They're just a quick, easy way for police to arrest individuals that have outstanding warrants, people who have drugs or weapons in their car, to write vehicle equipment violations etc. They are horribly inefficient at catching drunk drivers.

Comfests, Happy Hours, getting wasted...this wonderful country celebrates what you are now ironically being punished for.
I just walked by and wondered what the hub-bub was. When I asked the police officer what was going on he kindly told me to move along. I then saw a vehicle that said "mobile impairment unit" drive by. Here is the exact location, so spread the word to all your friends and responsible CUers.
Just Avoidz it!
It is at 2800 N. High St. in the large parking lot north of Arcadia/Hudson and High St. There is a Goodwill, Tim Horton's and US Post office there in case you are unsure of exactly where.

You can enjoy Comfest, happy hours and getting wasted. Just don't get behind the wheel and drive if you've been drinking. Simple things really.

Things are not so simple. REALLY!
What I am alluding to is the systemic and implicit encouragement to impair one's motor function and get in a car. Just can't have fun without a cold beer! So many less destructive drugs yet not only legalize but promote the worst one. Not everyone can live in Manhattan or Mayberry where you can skip home. Strip-mall bars built in the furthest corner of a huge parking lot? Drinking districts adjacent to on-ramps to highways? Designated-driver (i.e. lahooo-za-her)?
DUI laws/checkpoints are unfairly and unequally applied in charging or sentencing so why shouldn't they be skirted? You are right though, being white is aces! Now who does Louis CK resemble? Hmmm...I wonder who...
