Special rights for certain people in the government. Here's just one example. In the state constitution for Colorado, it states that you cannot detain a state representative on the way to or from the state capitol.
Okay, so this lady who is a state Rep. named Laura Bradford was pulled over for driving like she was drunk. The officer said he smelled alcohol on her breath and she ADMITTED right then and there that she had been drinking. All she got was a ticket and a cab ride home. Anyone else would get hauled off but I guess Ms. Bradford is special, she could have hurt someone.![]()
Here's a link to the story from a local news site.
