In reply to the discussion: Bill would make annoying a cop a crime [View all]Half-Century Man
(5,279 posts)22. Through early morning light I see
arrests for asking questions.
My sister-in-law was pulled over once for "slightly" exceeding the posted speed limit. She had nearly talked her way out of the ticket; when the officers attention was drawn to her denim vest covered with vintage pin on buttons. The one on her collar read "Support your local Police. Beat yourself up". She paid over two hundred dollars for collecting buttons (via speeding ticket).
If this law had been on the books, she could have spent time in jail for a button.
