Two cars were waiting at a stoplight. The light turned
green, but the man did not notice it. A woman in the car
behind him is watching traffic pass around them. The
woman begins pounding on her steering wheel and yelling
at the man to move. The man does not move.

The woman is going ballistic inside her car, ranting and
raving at the man, pounding on her steering wheel and
dash. The light turns yellow.

The woman begins to blow the car horn, flips him off, and
scream curses at the man. The man, hearing the
commotion, looks up, sees the yellow light and
accelerates through the intersection just as the light
turns red.

The woman is beside herself, screaming in frustration as
she misses her chance to get through the intersection.
As she is still in mid-rant she hears a tap on her window
and looks up into the barrel of a gun held by a very
serious looking policeman.

The policeman tells her to shut off her car while keeping
both hands in sight. She complies, speechless at what is
happening. After she shuts off the engine, the policeman
orders her to exit her car with her hands up.
She gets out of the car and he orders her to turn and
place her hands on her car. She turns, places her hands
on the car roof and quickly is cuffed and hustled into
the patrol car. She is too bewildered by the chain of
events to ask any questions and is driven to the police
station where she is fingerprinted, photographed,
searched, booked and placed in a cell.

After a couple of hours, a policeman approaches the cell
and opens the door for her. She is escorted back to the
booking desk where the original officer is waiting with
her personal effects.

He hands her the bag containing her things, and says,
"I'm really sorry for this mistake. But you see, I
pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your
horn, flipping that guy off, and cussing a blue streak at
the car in front of you, and then I noticed the "Choose
Life" license plate holder, the "What Would Jesus Do" and
"Follow Me to Sunday School" bumper stickers, and the
chrome plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so
naturally I assumed you had stolen the car."

An amusing story, and illustrates quite well the blatant hypocrisy exhibited by, oh, I don't know, let's say seventy percent of the human race.
I almost wish I could believe that... It would be so refreshing. And to witness something like that? It would do my heart good.

interesting, she was arrested just because of the stickers? doing what she did in public is enough for one to get arrested. I think it's call violent behaviour or something like that.

Not where I'm from. Here if a policeman pulls me over and he doesn't indicate, or approaches behind me at a speed I beleive is faster than the legal limit without his patrol lights on he's in for a nice day in court. Sure they have the upper hand sometimes but they still have to follow the same laws we do meaning that one simple mistake by them means you can get away with a fine for whatever you were doing but the officer can kiss any hope of promotion goodnight for a very long time.

A damn funny story nonetheless though!
