   TIM RICHARDSON to ROGER NELSON   
   I don't do this normally,   
   16 Aug 14 12:37:00   
   
   On 06-23-14, ROGER NELSON said to ALL:   
      
   RN>THE LIGHT TURNED YELLOW   
      
   RN>The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing,   
   RN>stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light   
   RN>by accelerating through the intersection.   
      
   RN>The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in   
   RN>frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection,   
   RN>dropping her cell phone and makeup.   
      
   RN>As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up   
   RN>into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to   
   RN>exit her car with her hands up.   
      
   RN>He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted,   
   RN>photographed, and placed in a holding cell.   
      
   RN>After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the   
   RN>door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting   
   RN>officer was waiting with her personal effects.   
      
   RN>He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind   
   RN>your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front   
   RN>of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'What Would Jesus   
   RN>Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'Follow Me   
   RN>to Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish   
   RN>emblem on the trunk, so naturally I assumed you had stolen the car."   
      
      
   Probably a used car she'd recently bought and hadn't yet removed the previous   
   owner's bumper stickers, and gotten herself a new license plate holder.   
      
      
   No doubt she was also a registered democrat.
