Most normal cops are really dumb. I had a cop pull me over once who couldnt even subtract my speed from the speed limit to tell me how much I was going over. She was like, "You were going, 12, i mean 17, wait... 19 MPH over the speed limit..." So I said, "Mam, which is it? 12, 17, or 19?" She replied, "Don't get smart with me or I'll cuff you and put you in the squad car." I replied, "I'm sorry, I couldn't possibly get smart with you," but she didn't get the joke and actually though I was trying to be polite after the fact.......damn ditz... Seriously, the right amount of power in the dumb enough hands can be really dangerous. Oh, I also got out of the ticket because the cop didn't even show up to court .
