An honest man is being tailgated by a
stressed-out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the light turns yellow, just in front of
him. He does the honest thing and stops at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten
the red light by accelerating through the intersection.
The tailgating woman hits the roof, and the horn, screaming in frustration as she misses
her chance to get through the intersection with him. As she is still in mid- rant, she
hears a tap on her window and looks up into the face of a very serious police officer. The
officer orders her to exit her car with her hands up. He takes her to the police station
where she is searched, fingerprinted, photographer, and placed in a cell.
After a couple of hours a policeman approaches the cell and opens the door. She is
escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting office is waiting with her personal
effects.
He says, "I'm very sorry for this mistake." "You see, I pulled up behind
your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping the guy off in front of you, and
cussing a blue streak at him." I noticed the "choose Life" license plate
holder, the "What Would Jesus Do" bumper sticker, the "Follow Me to Sunday
School" bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the
trunk."
"Naturally, I assumed you had stolen the car."
