OFF THE WIRE
Submitted by John Brady
Police in Manchester, New Hampshire are permitted to set up a sobriety check point as of
March 1st. The checkpoint is set to take place in Manchester on Friday March
15,2013 and Saturday March 16,2013, the weekend of Saint Patrick’s Day. The
petition to stomp on our rights even more was granted by Hillsborough County
Superior Court North In Manchester, NH. On March 4,2013, I decided I would call
Manchester Police and ask them the location or closest landmark location the
officer in charge told me that it was a matter of public safety to not disclose
the location of the checkpoint. He continued by saying they have my interest and
the rest of the public’s interest in mind and safety is there first priority. I
asked him how wasting mine and other taxpayer dollars was in my best interest by
entrapping peaceful people, he abruptly hung up on me. SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL ON
FRIDAY MARCH 15,2013, AND SATURDAY MARCH 16,2013 THE GANGSTERS IN BLUE WILL BE
OUT TO ENTRAP YOU IN MANCHESTER, NH.
