I Fought the Law

Jesus broke the law. So did George Washington. You did, too, and we want to hear about it.

Public urination

Up +47 Down

My friends and I were out this Tuesday to do some random drinking. Because I have to take the ethics portion of the bar exam on Friday, I restricted myself to six or seven drinks. On the walk home, my weak bladder forced me to urinate into some shrubbery. As I zipped up, someone yelled, "Stop right there. We saw you." That somebody was a bike cop and his partner. I buckled up and they asked me how much alcohol I had consumed, to which I responded, "Absolutely none." The main officer said that if my story checked out and I was sober, he'd let me off the hook. He gave me the "follow this light with your eyes test" and detected no signs of saucing. After saying that they would have arrested me if I was drunk, they each explained how big of a break they were giving me (including some threats of indicting me as a sex offender due to bare penis). I said it was an even bigger break than they thought since I have to sit for the full bar exam in a year (apparently the "character and fitness" evaluators frown upon leaking in the bushes). The first officer let me go and said, "Just remember: if you are ever in court against a police officer, we aren't all assholes." Indeed I will.
