CHP vs. USMC
CHP vs. USMC
Top this for a speeding ticket
Two California Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding
enforcement on I-15, just north of the Marine Corps Air Station at
Miramar . One of the officers was using a hand held radar device to
check speeding vehicles approaching the crest of a hill.
The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began
reading 300 miles per hour. The officer attempted to reset the
radar gun, but it would not reset and then turned off.
Just then a deafening roar over the treetops revealed that the
radar had in fact locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was
engaged in a low flying exercise near the location.
Back at the CHP Headquarters the Patrol Captain fired off a
complaint to the USMC Base Commander. The reply came back in true USMC
style:
Thank you for your letter. We can now complete the file on this incident.
You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the
Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked on to,
your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming
signal back to it, which is why it shut down.
Furthermore, an Air-to-Ground missile aboard the fully armed
aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment location.
Fortunately, the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the
situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system
alert status and was able to override the automated defense system
before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position.
The pilot also suggests you cover your mouths when cussing at them,
since the video systems on these jets are very high tech. Sergeant
Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist
to check his left rear molar. It appears the filling is loose.
Also, the snap is broken on his holster.
Thank you for your concern. Semper Fi.

"The rifle is the weapon of democracy. If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military. The hired servants of our rulers. Only the government-and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws." (Edward Abbey, "The Right to Arms," Abbey's Road [New York, 1979])
I have my rifle. Do you?
