Based on his story, sounds more like he’s profiling himself.


Just to be clear, the stops didn't bother me at all. I thought it was funny.

I worked with a lawyer who represented a number of NW Louisiana sheriff's offices. We were going to Monroe for a federal court hearing. There was a sign on the interstate that said "Caution ... Drug Checkpoint Ahead." It was by a rarely used exit. Of course, there was no checkpoint on the interstate. They would catch people exiting and question them about where they were going. Those who were dodging the checkpoint could not coherently explain why they exited. They also used to do this on I 49 at the Asseff Road exit.

The lawyer I was with was driving an he exited because he wanted to ask if their ploy was working.

Yeah it's still there. Makes me laugh every time I pass by it. I had a girlfriend that lived in the boons off that exit and was coming back from a doctor's appt in Shreveport, I took the exit and within a minute, woot woot. She called just as he'd started questioning me, saw her contact photo when my phone lit up and said hell that's Bailey, you're good to go man he knew her from going to the store she worked at and let me on my way.
