DUI checkpoints have nothing to do with fascism. The goal of fascism is to oppress innocent people for political gain. The goal of DUI checkpoints are public safety.
They have nothing to do with each other. The government gains zero power or influence through the use of DUI checkpoints.
Do you think getting searched before you board a commercial airplane is a "step toward fascism"?
