My taxes pay your salary. Mentioning this to the police are going to make them want to punish you. So, let's be honest. How much of your taxes are really paying for the cops? I don't know why people say it, but people do say it. They say it all the time. You know, I pay your salary there, officer. Yeah, well, thank you. I appreciate that very much. Here's your ticket. Have a nice day. Oh, by the way, I think I'm going to write you an extra ticket cuz you said that. Yeah, I understand in this situation in this police encounter situation, you feel like the customer and the customer's always right. Sometimes the customer ain't right. Just go along to get along. Invoke your right to remain silent early and often. Don't challenge this police officer on the street and certainly don't tell him that you pay his salary.
