Eye in the Sky
While Shane Boor was driving to work, he saw a Colorado State Trooper who had pulled another driver over. Boor, who says he has had some "issues in the past" with the Colorado State Patrol, flipped the trooper off. So the officer had a State Patrol aircraft, that was helping with traffic enforcement, follow Boor to work. That's where another trooper showed up and ticketed Boor for an obscene gesture. After the American Civil Liberties Union got involved and local media reported the incident, the Colorado State Patrol decided to drop the charge.
