Never seen a ‘cops are heroes’ billboard, let alone one on wheels, so maybe this is a new idea. Optimistically, maybe it’s an indication of progress when police now need to advertise.

Maybe it means we’re making progress in helping people understand what cops are?

    Every time a police officer puts on their uniform and goes to work, they have no idea how their day will end.

    And neither does anyone they will interact with.

    The reason they skipped straight to mobile advertisements is because if that shit wasn’t constantly monitored, it’d be defaced.

      I bet some frozen paintballs would make short work of it.

    An indication of progress isn’t a billboard… enacting change like better training and holding criminals accountable, regardless of if they have a shiny chunk of metal they call a badge.

    There’s a new cop-aganda instance, thankthepolice. If you have time, visit, muck about, but don’t feed the trolls. Well, maybe a little

      Yup, there’ve been several DMs and two posts about it (both deleted).

      Trolling a pro-cops page is about as effective as blowing raspberries at cops. I’m sure it’s fun — I was 12 once too — but trolling their page only invites them to troll this page, where we have more than enough trolls already. Please don’t use this group to rally further trolling of other pages.

      Real heroism is usually recognized without the ‘hero’ putting up a ‘hero’ sign.
