My wife and I were in a line of cars that were turning into an event parking lot. The police were there directing traffic, and this dude in a blue 2002 dodge ram tried turning in from the opposite side instead of being in line with the rest of us. I couldn't hear what was said, but the cop stopped him, and I could see by the body language that he was basically arguing that even though he made a mistake, or was trying to jump the line, he should just be allowed to go because it would be easier. You could tell by the gestures that the cop kept telling him "no, you're going to have to get in line".
He gets pissed and just goes for it. I can see the cop say something into his walkie.
We turn into the lot, and there he is, pulled over and arguing with a new cop.
These motherfuckers can't fathom how if this was a stop in a big city, and if they were a minority, the cops would just ventilate them. I'm a straight white man, and I couldn't imagine mouthing off to a cop for fear of repercussions.
I know we hate cops, but sometimes they do something that makes you go "...yeah"
Also, Rush kicks ass and I saw them on the Clockwork Angels tour
I mean it's also just like a nod to how that situation is usually totally reversed
I'm a part time concert bastard and nothing makes me happier than when people hide their drugs well enough that I can get away with pretending not to have seen them.

Is this a Canadian saying that I'm not familiar with?
Also: here's a video of an angry Albertan getting in a fight with the RCMP
"Bridge and tunnel" is a euphemism used by people that live in a big city use to imply that the person is not from the city, and used a bridge or tunnel to get there. It's like calling someone a hick
It's what you call 905ers when you want Americans to understand the joke
