After a lot of investigation, Oh, suddenly we find out that the Fairfax court house needs 40 million in upgrades and one of the most expensive upgrades is the Traffic Ticket section- They pump people through there faster than McDonalds. Then the law was revoked and they had to pay people back the $ they had taken for a few years on the same conviction. They lied about it on TV and to its people. Dont get me wrong, I'm not against the VA state police or our local PD's. I just think I should be allowed to play by the same rules since their JOB is paid for and in respect to support me, the tax payer.
Ok, I just fell off my soapbox...I'm done.
