A lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a sheriff. He thinks he's smarter being a big shot lawyer from New York and has a better education than an sheriff from West Virginia. The sheriff asks for license and registration. The lawyer asks, 'What for?' The sheriff responds, 'You didn't come to a complete stop at the stop sign.' The lawyer says, 'I slowed down and no one was coming.' 'You still didn't come to a complete stop. License and registration please,' say the sheriff impatiently. The 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 can give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don't give me the ticket.' The sheriff says, 'That sounds fair, please exit your vehicle.' The lawyer steps out and the sheriff takes out his nightstick and starts beating the lawyer with it. The sheriff says, 'Do you want me to stop or just slow down?'
