Grizzly Pete

[firestarter]

Grizzly Pete is out for a putt -- the day is beautiful and he's looking forward to getting out on one of his favorite roads. Unfortunately on his way out of town, an ******* cager cuts sharply in front of him to pull into a left-turn lane, and only his skill and years of experience keep him from losing control and dumping the bike, finally managing to wrestle his ride to a safe stop.

Pissed off to the max, in full view of witnesses, he reaches into a saddlebag, pulls out a tire iron and throws it with all his considerable might. It smashes through the rear window of the cage and whacks the driver on the back of the head, knocking him out. The vehicle loses control and eventually smashes into a tree --the cage is totalled and the driver is put into the hospital for weeks.

Some time later at his trial, the prosecuting attorney is cross-examining Grizzly Pete on the stand and finally just asks "WHY?! Why did you do it?!"

Grizzly Pete thinks for a moment, then starts beaming and says "I didn't see him!"

Sounds like he earned a slap on the wrist and to be sent on his merry way.
