Rebel viewers may recall my report about Hogtown’s roll-out of police cruisers sporting a new paint job. It was abruptly aborted after certain members of Generation Snowflake were “triggered” by the “militaristic” colour scheme.
The switch to grey was promptly halted and now comes word that to avoid triggering anyone with a perceived militaristic-RoboCop colour scheme, Toronto’s progressive city council wants the public to weigh-in online regarding what their kinder, gentler police cruisers should look like.
As we all know, design by committee always gets great results.
But, as a free service to the police and the city – and bearing in mind the overarching goal of not triggering uber-sensitive types, I humbly submit the following suggestions for feel-good cop cars.
So many choices, so little time to concoct a kinder-gentler, diverse and inclusive police cruiser.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to see the final result.
Here is your Benny Hill music, bet you can’t listen to it all the way through!

The bike brigade is expected to return to the station with an empty basket after each shift.
Officers who require transport with their prisoner; call Uber, and request a super-friendly driver who plays whale calls without complaint.
Robocops bad, bad, bad! Community policing must now be above all, approachable…Mr. Rogers will be delivering his weekly talk after roll call.

They should be playing Benny Hill chase music for this video.
No, it’s not because it’s “triggering” people. It’s because the police are supposed to be approachable and part of the community, not “robocop”.
TO SERVE AND PROTECT
Are the police still there to ‘serve and protect’ the public, or are they there to do ‘law enforcement’ for the state – like most other police services in Canada and the US now do.

It is no wonder that our cities, and governments are so screwed up – no one has the balls to say NO anymore. Instead they kowtow to every asshole that yells, screams and throws a tantrum or has their own idea as to how things should be for the rest of us.
F*cking sad world this is turning out to be – and scary.
