Hey, Ed, I can’t understand it. A friend was sitting on Cass Street, next to the AA club, about five feet from his car, and he had his music on in the car but it wasn’t loud. A Trenton police officer drove by in Car No. 412, stopped the car, backed up, and asked him for his license, registration and insurance. He gave it to her and said “I’m just sitting here at the club waiting for the AA meeting, so what did I do wrong?” And she said, “You left your car running.” He said the car was not running. “Well, you left your music playing,” the officer replied. Since when is it against the law to play music in your car? It’s not like it was real loud. There were four or five people out here and we’re all trying to figure, what is her problem? The Trenton police got nothing better to do than harrass people who are playing music that’s not loud?

Live and let live

You've got it all wrong. The music wasn’t loud enough. It’s so annoying when you can kind of hear it, but not really enough to enjoy.
