No, that wasn't the standard. There was no standard. That's the point of the case: the laws being challenged are implied consent laws that state that by operating a motor vehicle on public roadways, you have already consented to the search. A search that you consent to requires no probable cause, it doesn't even require reasonable suspicion. "Can I search your poo poo?" "Sure thing, officer, go ahead," has always been entirely legal even if the officer has no probable cause that you've committed a crime. In the case before the Supreme Court the defendants were drunk off their rear end, "probable cause" would have been a trivial bar to clear, but they're challenging their convictions because they cops didn't even have to do that.

That's not correct. Under the implied consent statutes the blood draws and breath tests are compulsory only after a valid arrest which always requires probable cause. The police can't just pull you over and bring you to the station and stick a needle in your arm for no reason and they couldn't even do it following an arrest for driving without a license. The North Dakota statute reads:

The test or tests must be administered at the direction of a law enforcement officer
only after placing the individual, except individuals mentioned in section 39-20-03,
under arrest and informing that individual that the individual is or will be charged with
the offense of driving or being in actual physical control of a vehicle upon the public
highways while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, drugs, or a combination
thereof.

http://www.legis.nd.gov/cencode/t39c20.pdf?20160422111652

The standard for arrests is always probable cause therefore the standard of proof wouldn't change with a warrant. If I'm the defense attorney in the system as it stands I'm going to argue that my client shouldn't have been administered the test because the police didn't have probable cause to believe my client was drunk. It's the same argument with the warrant, I'm arguing that there wasn't sufficient probable cause for the warrant to have been issued. It's the same argument except with a warrant it's actually EASIER for the state to win because there's a presumption that warrants issued by a neutral and detached magistrate are valid.

Yes, literally speaking there now are two probable cause arguments, probable cause for the arrest, and probable cause to get the blood draw but the evidence for one is the same as the other.

And same thing with the backwards cuts: "the anti-gay slurs were written from her perspective, not an attacker’s."

I'm from here. When they showed the graffiti slurs on the news everyone knew they were fake. A violent attacker isn't going to spray paint things like "DIE human being" in very feminine bubble letters.

Of course there was also security footage from the hardware store of her buying the spray paint and rope.

Thanks for all the guesses guys it is probably one of the ones mentioned but I still can't find it. I remember it talking about one woman that was holding onto a railing and wouldn't even let go when another passenger was screaming at her she'd die if she didn't come on. That always chilled me thinking about who I'd be in that situation. In the few near misses I've had I've always been pretty removed from the situation but would I panic if I was certain it was death?

That said, some people have severe Vagus reponses if they know they're getting pricked by a needle(me included) but that's less fear and more "I would really prefer not fainting right now so I'm just going to look at the wall and pretend I'm not getting poked."

Might have been it, I'll have to dink around and see...there was a bridge one, then another physics-type program that was mainly lines and anchor points style. You could build out little hills, adjust friction, make little vehicles with the shape tools, and then "test" everything. I'd always build little cars or cycles with stick figures and turn the gravity to half, friction to near nothing, and launch them all over the place like a madman. Pretty fun stuff :)

This. I work at a lab and at least once a week someone comes in who acts like this. We tell them to gently caress off and come back when they can act like an adult - not in those exact words, but pretty much. We can deal with phobics and fainters, but this histrionic bullshit is beyond stupid, not to mention dangerous to the patient and the phlebotomist. Also, veins don't roll, float, sink, fly, or run away from needles. Just stick out your goddamn arm.

I have needlephobia (not crippling: I can grit my teeth, close my eyes and bear it, but the anxiety leading up to it is really intense) and for me it's more about some sort of perception of my veins and arteries as something that absolutely should not be pierced and the very mental image of that happening is horrifying to me. I also just generally get anxious and uncomfortable when looking at veins (mine or other people's) that are very pronounced and close to the surface of the skin. When people push them around and touch them it makes me shudder with revulsion.

Yeah I always used to feel bad for whoever was drawing my blood cause I felt so ridiculous about it. But now that I know what it is I just deal with it and try to work around it.
Though I did get to see an absolutely amazing face from my phlebotomist the one time they drew blood while I was hooked up to a BP monitor. She looked like she had just accidentally injected me with ground glass and HCL while my attending just waved it off like it was any other day.

Yea, what's funny is that the kids (older than babies and toddlers) are usually pretty good with it as long as their parents aren't acting stupid. My favorite was a little girl who watched the whole process calmly and intently and remarked to her mom that the butterfly needle looked like a crazy straw. "Is that my blood?" "Yes." "Cool!"

When I realized I had to take a phlebotomy course to get my CMA, I was nearly freaking out because I didn't think there was any way I could stand doing it, but it turned out I had a decent feel for it and once you get into the science of the tests and just how amazing blood is for diagnostics, there's no turning back. I realize this probably doesn't work for the average person or the truly needle phobic though. Sorry, ya'll. Just try to stay calm and still and you'll most likely survive it. ;)

This one time, I confessed my robot fetish to a boyfriend early in our relationship. He didn’t quite understand at first. He asked, “So you mean you’d have sex with R2D2?”

“No, not exactly.” It was funny to picture though. So I tried to clarify:

“What I mean is you could sort of wind me up like a doll, or wind me up too tight and I’ll break, and you’ll have to fix me.”

He scrunched his face. “Isn’t that more of a doll fetish though?”

“That’s just one example,” I said. “There’s lots of things I fantasize about.” If I’d known better, I could’ve avoided a lot of confusion by showing him the Duran Duran video “Electric Barbarella.” (I still get shivers when watching it.) The more we talked, it seemed like the less he understood. Boo. When someone can’t even get their heads around the idea, it kinda kills the mood.

What really pisses me off is when the nurse claims it won't hurt. It's never appropriate to lie to kids, but lying to them about something like that is just cruel. Young kids take their cues from their parents, and if their parents are matter-of-fact and honest about it, kids will deal. I really have to wonder what trauma that girl underwent to make her react like that, though.

Agreed! No one I work with does that poo poo. Of course it hurts, it's a piece of steel piercing your skin. BUT, it doesn't have to hurt that bad. A lot of it is skill and a lot more of it is expectation. Tell them it will sting or feel like a pinch, or that it will only hurt for a few seconds and it will go way better than lying. Also, it actually hurts kids less than adults because their skin is much softer. What's as bad as lying that it won't hurt at all is the parents who make such a big drama that the kid thinks it's gonna feel like they're getting their arm chopped off. Some people practically condition their kids to have a lifelong phobia - or in the case of lying, to have a lifelong fear/distrust of medical staff. :mad:

Ya I used to give blood and while the vast majority of nurses are hella pro, there will always be some that are just really loving bad at finding the vein. I had one whose hands were shaking all over the place and it took at least 3 stabs to get blood out. Hurt like gently caress. If you're already uncomfortable with needles and something like that was your first experience, no doubt you'd freak out at the mere thought of another one.

Oh just remembered I got acupuncture for a while too. She was really good, but one time she hit a nerve directly and my arm literally spasmed and it felt like it was being shredded. ColeArmslaw.
