Vermont State Police Cruiser Decals Sport a Pig




See an important Sneigwhblog news headline UPDATE below

Vermont State Police cruiser decals are sporting a pig shaped splotch.
Someone wasn’t connecting the spots on the Vermont Sate Police decals made by the Vermont Correctional Industries Print Shop until it was too late. About 30 decals on VSP cruisers now feature a cow with a splotch shaped like a pig.

Apparently someone at the Correctional Industries shop altered the cow.
The Burlington Free Press says two state senators who former police officers are found some humor in it and one noted:
"This is not as offensive as it would have been years ago. We can see the humor," State Senator Flynn said.
He said the artist has talents that could be used elsewhere. "If that person had used some of that creativeness he or she would not have ended up inside."

But a State Police Major’s press release statement bemoaned that the cost of the joke will be borne by taxpayers.
No one suggested keeping the decal cow,pig and all.

  1. Senator Flynn ought to have said "creativity" rather than "creativeness." That there is poor grammar.

    Think about how collectible these things will be!
