It seems that when a Democrat gets caught breaking the law, they're the first to let the cops know that they're someone special, though it never works out in their favor.
That was evidenced again recently after a longtime Democratic Oklahoma state senator was pulled over and ultimately arrested after getting out of hand with the arresting officer due to her high and might position.
Fox News reported that Tulsa-based Democratic State Sen. Regina Goodwin was seen on body camera footage arguing with Tulsa County Sheriff’s Deputy Freddie Alaniz in the early afternoon hours after being pulled over.
What should have been a routine traffic stop turned into a "very verbal" ordeal.
The state Democrat was reportedly pulled over after the sheriff's deputy witnessed her not stopping for two stop signs.
As soon as she exited the vehicle, the situation became verbally tense. She was also asked for her driver's license numerous times but refused to turn it over.

"Ma’am, I’m not going to ask you again. Can I get your driver’s license, or can I take you to jail on running a stop sign?" Alaniz asked the state lawmaker. "I’m not going to ask you again. It’s not for debate."
The state Democrat accused the officer of "escalating" the situation, which prompted the officer to deny the claim and repeat what he had told her, which the bodycam footage clearly showed.
The two went back-and-forth several times over whether or not she refused to hand over her license, which again, the video showed clearly that she refused on multiple occasions.
The officer, who understandably had enough, finally arrested the lawmaker, who clearly believed she was above the law.
Her lawyer, who witnessed the scene, asked the officer for a favor.
"I realize you have a job to do, officer," her lawyer said. "I realize Sen. Goodwin can be a little bit strong-headed at times, but don’t you think you can write her a citation or something? She’ll give you her driver’s license."
Though a superior officer was called in to mediate, Goodwin was eventually released at the scene and given a citation.
