The Mighty Mopo

I am driving down Carpenter in Modesto and I look in the rearview mirror. A Mopo is tailgating me. I am going 2 miles below the speed limit so I go a little faster. He turns on his lights and pulls me over.

"May I help you?" I hand him my Texas driver's license from the window of my Texas vehicle.

"It is illegal to drive a vehicle with tinted windows in the front and sides in the state of California!"

"Well, what am I supposed to do?" (I am thinking don't you see that I am from Texas)

"It is illegal to drive a vehicle with tinted windows in the front and sides in the state of California!"

"Well, what am I supposed to do?" (Are you a moron?)

"Do you live here?"

"No, I am just visiting."

"OK" he hands me my license and walks away.

Bill said that because I was a white girl with an attitude, I probably wasn't a drug dealer even though my car fits the profile. A guilty person wouldn't act the way I do.
