"Always question authority, when that police officer stops you, question his authority, ask why you were stopped, after you get the ticket go to the court and ask for the evidence against you, if he can't prove you broke the law anything he cites you for will be dismissed, It's his job to prove you did something. It's important that you never take what your elected officials say for granted, always make sure they back up their promises and positions with action"

Walt Washington was giving a presentation to my local government class at Olympic College in Bremerton, he got sidetracked between talking about how his office manages elections and vehicle licensing and gave us this tangent to consider...
I wish so badly I hadn't forgotten my tape recorder (I don't believe in digital, I keep an analog set-up with actual tape) with me so I could've recorded that. but it's reassuring to hear some government officials say stuff like that, now he needs to run for sheriff...
