Yeah, I had the gun pointed at the head of my ex-girlfriend, but I wasn't going to pull the trigger.

Yeah, I had fifth of Jack shoved down the front of my pants, but I wasn't going to walk out of the store with it.

Yeah, I poured gasoline over the vehicle and I had a lighter in my hand, but I wasn't going to torch the vehicle.

Yeah, I asked if the dealer had any crack cocaine and I had money in my hand, but I wasn't going to buy any.

Yeah, I was tapping his foot under the stall and waving my hand underneath there, but I wasn't going to suck the guy's d*ck.

The Senator participated in the illegal act of solicitation. Trust me...he got busted fair and square.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, but I know Sgt. Karsnia from when I used to work up at the Minneapolis/St. Paul Intl Airport. He's a good cop.
