If you haven’t already, brace yourself for the way of our new world. A lawyer representing a man charged with drunken driving is claiming that Connecticut’s breathalyzers discriminate against blacks. He claims that research shows “the lung capacity of a black man is 3 percent smaller than a white man […]
