Actions Speak Louder Than Words
A law-abiding 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 brakes, then the roof, and the
horn, screaming in frustration as she missed her chance to
get through the intersection with him. 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,
fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a 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 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."
