Somewhere on the back roads of West Virginia...
A lawyer runs a stops sign and gets pulled over by the local sheriff. He thinks he's smarter being this big shot lawyer from New York and has a better education than a sheriff from West Virginia.
The sheriff asks for license and registration. The lawyer asks, "What for?"
The sheriff responds, "You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign back there."
"I slowed down and no one was coming." the lawyer says.
"You still did not come to a complete stop. License and registration please." says the sheriff impatiently.
"If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I'll give you my license and registration and you can give me the ticket for the infractions. If not, you have to let me go and not write up that ticket." the lawyer said.
The sheriff paused a bit and said, "That sounds fair, please exit your vehicle sir."
The lawyer steps out of his vehicle and the sheriff takes out his nightstick and starts beating the lawyer with it. After this went on for a few moments, the sheriff says, "Do you want me to stop or just slow down?"
