Default The Light Turned Yellow...

The light turned yellow just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.



The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, because she missed her chance to get through the intersection. At the same time she dropped her cell phone and makeup.

While she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.


After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. The tailgating woman was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.

He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' licence plate holder, the 'Follow Me to Sunday School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally I assumed you had stolen the car."

Not anti-Christian. Pro Christian, by describing how NOT to act.

Who cares about any message. Cute story so get over it. We are so all consumed about what message we say about what, it's a wonder we are not all a bunch of whimps. This is why we all get groped at the airport. We are to afraid to profile.

Couldn't agree more with the above - forget the message, enjoy the story.

As usual, you hit the nail on the head.

Before hitting send I knew I would get a rise by pointing out the message of the story. I'm not the least bit offended and call it as I sees it. It was a good joke with clearly an Anti Christian hypocrisy message. Did you hear the one about the Dyslexic Atheist? He proclaimed their is No DOG.

Excuse me, but you got a rise because you missed the message of the story.
It's an anti-hyprosy joke. The reference to Christianity is merely incidental.
