Live and don't learn

-- PORT HOPE, Ont. -- An Ontario driver has learned a hard lesson about respecting authority.

He was pulled over for speeding on Sunday on Highway 401 near Port Hope, Ont., after being tracked by a police helicopter. Police say the driver was stopped and ticketed for travelling 35 kilometres over the posted speed limit.

After he received the ticket and began to pull away, the driver raised his hand and flashed an obscene gesture toward provincial police Const. Bettina Schwarze.
Ah yes... another Henry Louis Gates moment...
She pulled the unidentified man over again and promptly gave him a $110 ticket.

The offence? Making an improper hand signal.

UPDATE: Some things never change

Just noticed I have 2 hits this morning from CC's retarded little brother "Red Tory". I think that's a new record from ol' Red.

Now, I can't actually be bothered to go there and see what the non-fuss is, but I will share a previous missive from the "Pink Dink".
"Ejaculation. There you go, five whole syllables! That should do the trick. And the folks at Kleenex® thank you for your continued patronage."

Amazing what passes for discourse over in the compassionate, intellectual leftosphere.

Almost makes you miss Jason Cherniak.
