An interesting court case is happening in Ballwin, where a man is fighting for free speech…of the speechless kind.

A Florissant man is fighting a ticket he got for giving the middle finger to another driver in Ballwin.

The man is fighting the ticket based on a similar case in Pittsburgh. That ticket was thrown out as a violation of free speech.

Holy hell! You can get tickets for that?! Luckily we’re a master of the sly middle finger. To think of all the double tickets we could have gotten if only the cop had noticed which finger I was rubbing my eye with makes us cringe, but luckily, we’re the best. There’s also the “point in a direction with your middle finger” trick, a total classic, the “pick your nose with a middle finger”, and of course the “interpretive dance with middle fingers up and flaying arms and legs”.
