Apparently, police in some Third World countries came up with a solution to ensure their own safety during traffic stops and such. They didn't prohibit tints. They just justify accidental shootings to mistaking innocent persons as known rebels an/or criminals behind the tint. Once this trend started, almost everybody took their tints off immediately, except the police of course. True story, this is. BenT |
