Immigrants strike another blow against the Rule of Law
_______

Are you suggesting that the cops can make up laws as they go? The ticket in question, failure to speak English, does not exist.

I don’t quarrel with the common sense elements of your post too much (understanding a cop’s instructions in an emergency), but how has this immigrant struck a blow against the rule of law?

No. I am suggesting she was driving without her drivers’ license. That is against the law. You have to have your license when you are operating a vehicle, and she didn’t. The City of Dallas dismissed that ticket as well. I, personally, left my driver’s license at home one day by mistake, got a ticket, and had to pay a fine despite the fact that I had a license. This occurred in Dallas. I did have my insurance, for which they were doing a random check. But then again, I speak English.

By being here in the first place. To immigrate legally, one has to have a basic knowledge of the English language.
