Think twice before slapping on that bumper sticker

My sister sent me this today. Just one of the MANY reasons I don't put bumper stickers or emblems on my car.

A man was being tailgated by a stressed out woman on a busy boulevard.
Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right
thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red
light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman hit the roof, and the horn, screaming in frustration
as she missed her chance to get through the intersection. As she was
still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the
face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit
her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station where she
was searched, finger printed, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.

After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the
door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting
officer was ! waiting with her personal effects.

He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind
your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy 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.

ROTF - Great one. Oddly enough I've seen this behaviour before, incidentally from a woman in an SUV with a choose life license plate (you can have those here in FL). She was screaming at me for stopping before the rail road tracks in traffic instead of on them.

Wish the cop had been there that day!

Stupid woman cut out in front of me and then stopped dead on the tracks (traffic was bumper to bumper and there was no where else to go) and then when the train came (as they frequently do in this area) she made a bunch of other cars pull up into the intersection on a red light in order for her to get off the tracks.

I sorta wished that no one moved but I was afraid the train would hit her SUV and knock into my car.

LOL, Rose! I know what you mean. That is the typical Austin driver, regardless of posterior persuasion.

One of my sister's, who is a "born again Christian", said she was going to put a Christian bumper sticker on her car but didn't because she would have to drive in a "Christian manner". LOL!

Heh, where I was living in Florida, this type is pretty common. Anytime you see rude behaviour in an SUV you just know there is a wee chrome fishy on the back. I was thinking of doing my own custom job; making a big chrome Jew fish, eating a smaller chrome fish with a cross in it, and putting it on the back of my car. Decided I'd get shot so I never did it.

Hehe. I assume you've seen the Darwin fish and then of course the Christian counter to that -- the Christian fish eating the Darwin fish. Where are their mommys???
