Fascinating video. So, here in lovely North Carolina the police either have to have an exigent circumstance (kidnapping, bank robbery) or create a plan that a judge signs off on in order to create a roadblock.
I'm not a fan of the latter. This guy starts to lose his cool at the end, but he's risking getting pulled out of his car and getting pummeled. I'm hoping he was doing live updates of his video so that it didn't get "lost."

cgod: I've watched many videos of people navigating these checkpoints. Legally the border patrol has no authority to check your papers outside of an airport or boarder crossing, you can refuse to comply. I've also seen videos where the border patrol extracts fellas like this guy and beats the shit out of them.
