Flip The Bird, Get A Ticket

Flight attendant Stephen Corey expressed his sentiments to Pennsylvania State Trooper Samuel Nassan III by gesturing with his middle finger. Trooper Samuel Nassan III responded by awarding Corey with a traffic citation for an improper hand signal.

Somewhat miffed, Corey filed a federal lawsuit yesterday contending that the Pennsylvania State Police violated his free speech rights. The lawsuit names as defendants Nassan, the Pennsylvania State Police, and Jeffrey Miller, State Police Commissioner. Corey seeks compensatory and punitive damages.

Stephen Corey can probably rely upon his goodwill account with the Pennsylvania State Police being at zero.
