And every time a woman on the stand under oath said " I am 100% positive that is the man that raped me "

Re: Can you be put in jail?

Many years ago, I had a lawyer friend who started out defending people for speeding tickets. He said the speeding tickets came in two flavors, speeding and speeding with other charges. He said the speeding tickets were not a big deal, but the other was different. Sometimes his client was "scuffed up", sometimes he had to interview the person from jail.

He said in the second type of speeding ticket was because the speeder failed the "attitude test".

I always remember that story, when I am stopped. I admire the police, they risk their lives everyday to make mine better. Even when they are giving me a ticket, they are helping me drive better and they are helping with tax revenues.

I make sure I convey that attitude.

You'll be surprised how a friendly attitude and a smile can make all the difference in the world. Not just with the police but with everyone you meet. :patriot: :txflag:
