Guy Gets Pulled Over By Police, Suddenly Realizes He Has Murder Weapon Props In Passenger Seat
Getting pulled over by the cops is never a good thing, but some circumstances are worse than others. When you forget your license, for instance. Or you’re drunk. Or, if you live in the U.S, just simply being black.
Having fake murder weapons scattered across your front seat has gotta be up there too, as this director found to his cost. On the way to the theater, Imgur user OldTownPhantom had gathered together all the props required to ‘kill’ each of the characters. It was now, of all times, that he got caught speeding. No biggie, he thought, just a fine, a slap on the wrist and I’ll be on my way. But then he remembered his stockpile of death-tools, placed menacingly beside him on the front seat.
Now when panic sets in, it can be very hard to disguise. And looking panicked in front of cops can only lead to suspicion, and ultimately, trouble. How to extricate oneself from this particular situation?

Nobody likes getting pulled over by the cops

Especially when you’re driving with the most suspicious package on the front seat
Best thing about it? He didn’t get a ticket!
People were quick to congratulate him on this outcome
Starting off with this as the onboarding message? "Or you’re drunk. Or, if you live in the U.S, just simply being black." The number of grammar inconsistencies, in the beginning, is appalling, to say the least. You used two "or" statements to start sentences with, what are you even comparing when you do that? You must really be itching for an argument if you want to throw the race card into the post as well.
I get the feeling I'm completely missing something here...

The author noted this fact in the first paragraph, saying that circumstances can go a lot differently if you are pulled over while black.

We recently did a spoof of this play. It was called And Then There Was One.
Lol , Horrible author of this story. They need to learn how to write. They have failed on this one. The only thing I gather from this story, is the Author is racist , and does not know the difference between Powder and Power.
I am actually a bit more concerned that " you don't kill anyone " by speeding. Speed limits are usually set as the highest speed that can be safely driven on that bit of road. You don't have to go that fast if the conditions have changed. For example more houses built => more kids, rain or fog. ... yeah yeah I know, I'm taking my hi viz coat and going.
lol very funny! My toddler got me out of a ticket once. He loves the police and was very excitedly admiring the offiicer so i was let off with a warning :)
Oh good. So no ticket for speeding? Don't kill anyone next time you speed. Dumbass
I will pay for you to get a new keyboard because it is obvious that you only have access to a mouse and the copy/paste button.
