Here's What's Wrong With Society

Pick up any paper today and you will find a story about woman who basically ran down a state trooper at Logan Airport and fled the scene. Now you might think he was trying to arrest her for some serious crime and she was just trying to escape, but you would be wrong, he was simply asking her to move out of the bus lane since she was not driving a bus. She was later pulled over on the Mass Pike and claimed that she wasn't even at Logan, despite the trooper's hand prints on her fucking hood. This isn't even the best part yet, the woman smelled like alcohol, had a cup in the console that smelled like alcohol but police couldn't test her sobriety because she wasn't slurring her words and they didn't have probable cause.

Now, I'm all for keeping innocent people out of jail but this is where the hardcore, do-no-wrong liberals start to piss me off, when they start giving the obvious bad guys too many rights. If they smell like booze, have an open container in the console that smells like booze, and just ran down a state trooper, I think that should qualify as probable cause to test her sobriety and/or BAC.

Now enter rich asshole 'entitlement.' I didn't mention it before because this lady made a big enough ass out of herself, but she was driving a Mercedez-Benz SUV and is high profile portfolio manager at some big financial company. Obviously that makes her more important than you or me and entitles her to wait in the bus lane for her husband and entitles her to drink and drive.

The sad part is that she'll hire some big expensive lawyer and somehow manage to get away with this, despite the bus full of witnesses waiting behind her to vacate the bus lane. Several of the articles also quote her attorney as saying "there are two sides to every story," although they won't tell us this "other side" or explain the hand prints on the hood.

Sometimes I wish was rich so I could get away with petty annoyances like standing in a bus lane or running over obstructions in the road like state troopers.
