Back in November 2012 I was driving to Eastern WA to visit a family member and shoot guns - target practice, plinking, nothing serious. I remember thinking about the email I sent, and wondering "crap, do they monitor silly shit like this?" A few hours later, while on the road, I was being tracked by a WA State Patrol white SUV. I wasn't speeding, I wasn't doing anything wrong. So, I stayed in the slow lane - and the cop SUV changed lanes to follow me. Then the lights came on, he pulled me over. "Hey, do you know why I pulled you over?" - I had no answer. "No" ...
"Well, I saw you change lanes twice ..."
Changing lanes twice, on I-90, to avoid crazy WA drivers ... that was my crime.
He didn't ticket me, but he asked me why I was traveling ... I simply told the guy I was driving to visit friends.
This is far from bad harassment, but it's the kind of crap that happens a lot now, and we all get used to it. Minor, daily, forms of harassment - reminders of "who's in charge".
Keep up the good work Adam.
