I got arrested for telling a cop to slow down after breaking up a domestic abuse

My brother and his girlfriend were staying with me in an RV in my backyard. One night, I heard a scream, so I ran to their RV and opened the door in horror to find her face bloodied up and topless, asking for help. I gave her my cardigan and told her to go into the house to call the police. I told my brother to walk with me through the neighborhood.

My neighborhood is a gated community with a speed limit of 5 mph and a lot of speed bumps. It was 6:00 PM, so it had just gotten dark, and we have a lot of kids who play out there because it is safe.

Well, as we were walking, I saw a police officer driving at least 40 mph through the neighborhood. I signaled him with my hands to slow down, but he blew right past me in a space just big enough for his car and us between the parked vehicles on the street. After they flew by us, I explained to my brother calmly that he was about to get arrested and to just go back with me and take accountability.

When we got back, the officers tackled him. After they got him in cuffs, one of the officers jumped up and started pushing me, yelling and cursing that I should never tell an officer to slow down. I told him calmly that this is my neighborhood and he has no excuse for putting all the kids and residents in danger by driving like that. He then proceeded to handcuff me, pushed me against the wall in my garden, and told me to sit in the mud.

He ran my record, telling me that if he found anything on me, I was going to jail too. I told him that my record is clean.After running my license, he came back to me claiming he found something on my record. I laughed and said, "No, you didn't." He said he did but wasn't able to see what it was, but that I definitely had a record.A little later his superior pulled him aside. I do not know what he told him, but after that, the bully cop helped me up, uncuffed me, and apologized for his behavior because he didn't know who I was.

My polar express theory.

My theory is that all the children on the Polar Express are the spirits of children who passed away on Christmas night being brought to heaven.

The conductor is Jesus guiding the children to heaven, the ghost is the Holy Spirit helping the non-believer find his faith, and Santa represents God, completing the Holy Trinity.

Hero Boy figures out that he has passed away and finally becomes a believer in the end. This is why he whispers what he wants to Santa (God); you are led to believe it was for the bell, but he actually wished to be alive again. The non-believer got his ticket punched with the word "Believe" basically as a warning to never lose faith. The combination of the non-believer never losing faith and his near-death experience is why he was always able to hear the bell.

Billy knew he had passed, which is why he sat grieving by himself ("it just doesn't work out for me"). Hero Girl knew too, but she was a devout believer who accepted her fate.

The train ride back was dropping all the children off at their personal places in heaven.

Polar express is about a train taking the spirits of children who passed on Christmas to heaven

​

My theory is that all the children on the Polar Express are the spirits of children who passed away on Christmas night being brought to heaven. The conductor is Jesus guiding the children to heaven, the ghost is the Holy Spirit helping the non-believer find his faith, and Santa represents God, completing the Holy Trinity.

The main character (the kid who questions his belief) figures out that he has passed away and finally becomes a believer in the end. This is why he whispers what he wants to Santa (God); you are led to believe it was for the bell, but he actually wished to be alive again.

The youngest child knew he had passed, which is why he sat grieving by himself ("it just doesn't work out for me"). The girl knew too, but she was a devout believer who accepted her fate.

The non-believer got his ticket punched with the word "Believe" basically as a warning to never lose faith. The train ride back was dropping all the children off at their personal places in heaven.

My trailer was infested with 100's of black widows.

So I am an owner operator truck driver. Sometimes I have to take some very unusual jobs. This one was a repo. So my trailer was sitting in the middle of a field and as I approached it I seen the color wasn't quite right. Once I got close up I realized the reason that the color was off was because Tire trailer was covered in spiderwebs with hundreds if not thousands of black widows covering every inch of it. Without touching the trailer I made sure that all the lights worked and all the tires were aired and decided to connect to it and take it. This field was right next to the highway during rush hour. When I got to my destination there was no more spider webs or spiders left on the trailer. Put simply I Unleashed thousands of black widows onto the highway and all of the cars behind me
