Today, I was pulled over by a cop. He asked for my license and registration, so I reached for my center console. I was then greeted with a gun to my ear because my coffee cup supposedly looked like a gun. I stepped out of my car to apologize, and I was hit with a big stick. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got pulled over by a cop. Since my window wasn't working, I opened the door, causing him to run towards me with a drawn gun. He then had a go at me with his night stick. After realizing my window was broken, he laughed and let me off with a warning. FML

Comments assume the OP was correct in that the coffee cup was what triggered the cop's reaction. Could have been the 12 gauge on the seat.

When I got pulled over I had to rummage through all my papers to find my registration, which took a good five minutes and the cop didn't assume I was looking for a weapon. That cop was just a dick.

to me there seems an obvious underlying other side of story. 1. it is likely some sort of aspect of your behaviour caused the officer to pull you over in the first place 2. the manner you reached into your glove compartment was probably not calm, slow or seemed suspicious. you have been impolite or showed other hostile intent (I doubt you looked like Tracey innocent smiley housewife regardless. 3. GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE unexpectedly when not asked to do so

I agree with 157, even if your coffee cup did look like a gun he didn't need to hit you when you got out

Rule 1: Never get outta the car unless the officer asks you to. Rule 2: Get rid of that coffee cup.
