"STOP OR SLOW DOWN"

 

A Navy Jag Lieutenant runs a stop sign on a Navy Base and gets pulled over by a Master-at-Arms (MA).

The Jag Lieutenant thinks that he is smarter than the MA because he is sure that he has a better education.

He decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the MA’s expense.

MA says …

"License and registration, please."

Jag Lieutenant says …

"What for?"

MA says …

"You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign sir."

Jag Lieutenant says …

"I slowed down, and no one was coming."

MA says …

"You still didn't come to a complete stop. License and registration, please."

Jag Lieutenant says …

"What's the difference?"

MA says …

"The difference is you have to come to a complete stop, that's the law. License and registration, please!"

Jag Lieutenant 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 no ticket."

MA says …

"Exit your vehicle, sir."

At this point, the MA takes out his baton and starts beating the ever-loving snot out of the Jag Lieutenant and says …

"Do you want me to stop or just slow down?!"
