They're dirt cheap color change tests operated by cops who don't know what a pH test even is. Not surprising if you've ever seen the clowns in blue use these.

Hair stylists have more hours of training than a cop in California. You can be half brain dead and still become a cop. That's why they're so dumb and racist

“let’s say the person was driving 100 miles per hour and committing a crime and they also had some powder on them. There would be another criminal charge,” he said. “It can’t be a sole charge of a level-one drug misdemeanor with the sole evidence being the colorimetric test.”

This is their new law/policy. So now people will still be arrested because of these bullshit tests but they're also gonna end up with a speeding ticket or a resisting arrest or disorderly charge as well. Fucking great job.
