We've posted a lot of videos of checkpoint refusals gone right, but never forgot, when dealing with government agents you're dealing with people who are borderline illiterate and almost never know the specifics of the laws they're tasked to enforce (nor do they care to learn them). Such irrational crazies can, and do, frequently do irrational and crazy things, which this case from Reason illustrates perfectly. From Reason: You've probably seen them before: internal border checkpoint refusals, now a popular YouTube genre. Some are funny. Others are hostile.
