A Lawyer Joke

[SailorJules]

NYPD Police Officer vs New York Lawyer
A lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a NYC Police Officer. He
thinks that he is smarter than the Police Officer because he is a lawyer and is
certain that he has a better education than any Police Officer . He decides to prove this
to himself and have some fun at the Police Officer's expense.
The Police Officer says," License and registration, please."
"What for?" says the lawyer.
The Police Officer says, "You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop
sign."
Then the lawyer says, "I slowed down, and no one was coming."
"You still didn't come to a complete stop, Says the Police Officer .
License and registration, please."
The lawyer says, "What's the difference?"
"The difference is you have to come to complete stop, that's the law.
License and registration, please!" the says Police Officer .
Lawyer says, "If you can show me the legal difference between slow down
and stop, I'll give you my license and registration; and you give me the
ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me the ticket."
"That sounds fair. Please exit your vehicle, sir," the Police Officer says.
At this point, the Police Officer takes out his nightstick and starts
beating the ever-loving s*** out of the lawyer and says
"Do you want me to stop, or just slow down?"

for some lawyers, that's a $500/hour payment to Mistress Jasmine.
