tint laws are ****ing stupid. I understand the whole idea behind the law in that cops want to be protected from douchebags in cars with guns. I mean what's the % of people getting pulled over being a drug dealer or violent criminal who would shoot a cop? Anybody have #'s on this? 5% maybe? So those 5% of people **** it up for the rest of us? That doesn't seem right. I see unmarked cop cars with super dark tint all the time. Why is that cool while dark tint on mine is not?

Really, if the cop pulls somebody over for window tint and it turns out they're just a normal Joe or Jane and not a drug dealer or violent criminal, why not just let them about their business? Writing a $200 ticket for that is a dick move. At that point, it's just about generating money for the city.
