Because the time is NOW http://www.gizmag.com/new-ford-polic...rceptor/14515/ Cities around the nation are struggling with debt and severe budget shortfalls. Many municipalities are on the brink of declaring bankruptcy. So It makes sooo much sense to advertise new cop cars to them! With all the money they don't have, I'm sure these will sell like underage sex! Do our elected officials really expect tax revenue is going to explode any minute now? Even if you assume a sustained commercial recovery (which is probably not going to happen..) and significant employment gains over the next two years (which is even less likely) you still have the fact that incurred losses can be applied to future tax liabilities for several years, so even in the best circumstances municipal and state tax revenue (let's not even talk about federal) won't significantly recover for years to come. Fuck it, who cares? Cop cars are certainly a more useful purchase than most of the junk taxpayers buy. At least these are flashy.

This is a fucking brilliant idea. Now all I gotta do is bring a jamming device that can interfere with whatever wireless signal they're using (bluetooth? wifi? doesn't matter...don't need to decrypt it, just jam it) and...piggy can't shoot back. Fucking. Retarded. Abusive cops are the norm, not the exception Need to repost this reply to Onion to the FP. Even a 30-second google search annoys the hell out of me. 337 people tased to DEATH by police in 2007/2008: http://mydeathspace.com/smf/index.ph...c=18308.0;wap2 A 6yo boy tased by police: http://www.wftv.com/news/3913217/detail.html 1 in 3 people need medical attention after being tased: http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2008/...-injuries.html 16yo injured teen tasered 19 times by police: http://www.infowars.com/missouri-pol...-boy-19-times/ Hell... just search google: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=list+of+people+tasered+by+police Why are cops abusive for the most part? They're grossly under-paid. They put their lives at risk on a daily basis. Most jurisdictions actually state the -maximum- level of education an officer can have. Virtually no sane individual becomes a cop. The system is just begging to be abused. And it is. Often.

Sorry Onion -- the only rational position is to distrust all police officers by default. In the majority of cases they are not there to help. This is sickening... http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2...he_day_off.php
