Fresno loves 'going national' lately. First the SJK verdict and now, our already famous DUI Checkpoints get their own show. Tonight at 11 Court TV broadcasts their special "Under the Influence" featuring North America's favorite scrappy city of beer and trip-tip: Fresno.
The show follows the Fresno PD as they sting Fresnans with their hilarious checkpoint hi-jinks. Hopefully you won't recognize your mom getting busted.
The Fresnan has decided to 'live blog' the show tonight, so pull your laptop up, remember to click refresh once in a while and watch the Fresdrunks with me.
Court TV is on comcast channel 50 in Fresno, check the live blog Sunday night at TheFresnan.com
Nothing wrong with Fresno
There is nothing wrong with Fresno.
Fresno..
Fresno does have its own unique charm.
Fresno is OK
Fresno is OK.
It's not that bad
I don't think this place is that bad. There is always a silver lining somewhere.
Yup, nuthin' like Fresno's
Yup, nuthin' like Fresno's unconstitutional, Nazi-esque police checkpoints to get your dander up and make Fresno, yet again the laughingstock of the country.
With urban sprawl and decay, Proposition 13-decimated public schools, 20% unemployment and shady housing lending practices all contributing to rising despair and gang violence among the Fresno masses, you'd think the cops would have something better to do than bust people for driving after having two beers.
Sure, if they weave in and out of traffic lanes, drive too fast or too slow, drive without their headlights on, or worse, actually cause a wreck, go on! Bust 'em for DUI! But don't shoot fish in a barrel with DUI checkpoints!
