DUI Checkpoints Deemed to Be Racist

California’s colonization by illegal aliens with a well-known penchant for driving drunk may put an end to the inconvenience of DUI checkpoints, which moonbat activists deem to be racist[1]:

Two local advocate groups for undocumented immigrants have publicly accused the Los Angeles Police Department and the Los Angeles County Sherriff’s Department of using DUI checkpoints to legally seize thousands of cars.

The Southern California Immigration Coalition and the South Central Neighborhood Council claim DUI checkpoints are strategically placed in and around Hispanic communities as a trap to catch unlicensed and undocumented drivers. …

“In one impound, four cars were impounded because of drunk driving and 60 cars were impounded because of a lack of a license,” said Julia Wallace of the South Central Neighborhood Council. “It’s obvious to us that for one, these things are targeting working class people, undocumented immigrants, that do not have a license but are really just abiding the law otherwise and are not drunk.”

Here’s an example of the usefulness of the Newspeak euphemisms liberals speak in. If she had said, “illegal aliens” who are abiding by the law other than driving drunk and without licenses, it would be even harder to keep a straight face. After all, the term “illegal” does have a legal meaning.

What’s to be done about the racism inherent in stopping drunk drivers in areas where most of the drunk drivers are invading Mexicans? Maybe they should follow in the footsteps of Maywood, a city completely taken over[2] by “undocumented Immigrants.” There the police were ordered to disband their traffic enforcement division[3] lest drunken, unlicensed Mexicans be inconvenienced. Eventually, Maywood did away with its police department altogether[4]. Lighting a shining path for the rest of California, Maywood soon collapsed into bankruptcy and lawlessness[5].

For now, militants may settle for following Oakland’s example:

The two groups want the city of Los Angeles to adopt a policy similar to the policy in Oakland, where undocumented or unlicensed drivers are allowed to pull over and wait for a licensed driver to come and get their vehicle rather than have their vehicle impounded.

The former Mayor of Oakland, infamous for his left-wing wackiness, will soon be taking office as Governor of California.
