I think you've missed out a crucial detail of the joke...

To those wondering, the missing context is that Chapelle's friend is white. In the story, he's brazen in his interaction with a police officer because he doesn't get hassled by cops as a white man.

Yours cuts off about half the bit, which is frustrating.

yes by text they might have missed nothing...but what's missing here is that Chapelle is doing his "white-man voice" which is kind of a big detail.
