the police car crime suspect head protector & depressor

a padded device for assisting the police to bundle their suspect into the car whilst helping with their enquiries.

the device swings outwards whenever the back passenger door of the police vehicle is opened. the policeman swiftly chooses an appropriate setting. e.g. 1. female elderly gangster. 2. female young mugger. 3. female middle-aged shoplifter. 4. male elderly swindler 5. male middle-aged traffic offender. 6. male young dope pusher. (mix and match to your preferences)

the officer places the padded head restraint on top of the suspect’s head and the “police car crime suspect head protector & depressor” will do the rest. the suspect’s head is lowered to just the right depth to enable him to be helped into the car at the right angle and the correct degree of shove without his/her head cracking on the roof of the car.

this is good news for the suspect as these things in the past have always been a matter of individual judgement on the part of the policeman & its good news for the policeman as they can now no longer be accused of undue force by the criminal or undue sensitivity by their superiors.

       I tell ya I was framed!   

       I don't know why, but as I read this the word "nutcase" comes to mind.

       do you get these unwarranted, unwanted thoughts often? there's a word for it..
po, Sep 02 2003
  

       Yes. In this case, the word is "apposite".
egbert, Sep 02 2003
  

       Yes, soon police cars will do all the work of arresting suspects and criminals; chase them down, slap on cuffs, read them their rights and throw them in the paddy vagon. Can't wait. Can't wait.
