    There’s a good possibility there will be some CHP that come back shot up. He should have sent the National Guard in. In full kit with auto weapons.

  2. Ah. So the CHP will give the criminals tickets and tell them to show up in court.

    Judge Maynard Dudley to Bailiff: What is the charge against Mr. Fred Bugliar? By the way, did I pronounce your name correctly, Fred? And may I call you Fred?

    Mr. Bugliar: Yes, your honor, you did. And please call me Fred.

    Judge Dudley: Thank you, Fred, I am very glad I did not mispronounce it. Whew, I feel like I missed a bullet with that one.

    Bailiff: Your honor, after robbing a 7-Eleven, the CHP Officer pulled Mr. Bugliar over for driving a car with an underinflated tire, and issued him a ticket. Mr. Buglair has hired an attorney and is contesting the charge.

    Judge Dudley: I see. Fred, what were you doing on the night of August 8, 1997 at the 7-Eleven?

    Mr. Bugliar: Your Honor, I was minding my own business and peacefully picking up some cigarettes and liquor from the 7-Eleven.

    Judge Dudley: Officer, stop wasting the court’s time…get on with your explanation of why you gave this poor man Fred a citation.

    Patrol Officer Warren White: Your honor, I saw Mr. Bugliar exit the 7-Eleven in a hurry, with the store manager following him and yelling out “Thief, Theif”. Being a CHP officer, I have no authority to arrest robbers, so I did the next best thing, the only thing I could do….so I gave….

    Judge Dudley: Court adjourned…we’ll reconvene on December 10, 2027.

    Bailiff: Court adjourned…All Stand.
