Your argument is invalid.

Ken Swindle, the Tuscaloosa police chief, found himself explaining this week what was going on when one of his patrol cars was spotted with an Auburn tag on the front. As it turned out, it really was a TPD patrol car and it really did have an Auburn Tigers car tag on it.
Swindle said on a Birmingham radio station Wednesday that supervisors have spoken to the officer and the officer won't be putting an Auburn tag on his car anymore. He says the department goes to great lengths with sensitivity training, and a police department must be impartial.
The chief conducted an investigation and, as it turned out, he admitted one of his officers made an error in judgment. The investigation turned up no other Auburn car tags on city equipment.

Crap, man - I was lurking and your dumb arse made me sign in just to respond to you.
I grew up there - the TPD used to cover up the freaking coach's drinking problems 20 years ago (not Bear - he could do anything). The Tuscaloosa media LOVES an arrest of a Bama player - it gets so many clicks. There's no way they cover stuff up.
The car was running, so the LAW says that there was a potential DUI taking place. The hearing has been postponed until the first of the year. It was in the news - I'm surprised it didn't turn up in your search.

Likely because 90% probably have a little weed residue in their vehicle - not a hard bet to make with those odds.

I would say they once were, but not so much any more. Or, no more lax than they are with any student. But, there's a LOT of weed on that campus, so they practically have to see you use to make a deal of it. It's when you do something else stupid that it gets brought up. Like in the UGA case. I know these are just kids, but it's just irresponsible to have residue in your car or weed on your person, then do something that will attract the wrong kind of attention. Some people just need the arrest to get their attention.
