While on a business trip down south, A lawyer slowed through a stop sign without coming to a complete stop.

Soon after, the lawyer noticed the ominous lights flashing in his rear-view mirror. Thinking theres no way this dumb southern cop can give him a ticket he decides to talk crap to the cop.

"Do you mind telling me why you pulled me over?", exclaimed the lawyer.

"Yes", the cop replied. "You failed to come to a complete stop at the stop sign back yonder!"

"I slowed down and nothing was coming, what's the big deal?" asked the lawyer.

"Well, the deal is that you must come to a complete stop! You didn't, so I'm gonna have to write you a ticket!" answered the cop.

"What's the difference?... If you can show me without a shadow of a doubt what the differences are, then I will stop running my mouth and sit here quietly while you finish the ticket... But if you can't then you have to let me go!" demanded the lawyer.

The cop thought about if for a minute, then replied, " You got yourself a deal mister!". The cop then pulled out his baton and proceeded to beat the ever-loving crap out of the lawyer... after about 3 minutes of this the cop looked down at the lawyer and asked.... "Do you want me to stop or just slow down?"
