The Laughing Policeman

You wouldn’t believe it but this is a glimpse into a future where the lawmen laugh like mad and the only thing they’ll bust you for is not joining in. The post-apocalyptic boys in blue will all dress like this. The only thing missing from our shots is a gargantuan grin, but that’ll come later. Rather than pull you for speeding or demanding a stop and search, they instead just ask you “Are you ok, hombre? Mind if I tell you a joke?”. Of course it wears thin and the baddies roam free but at least the cops look (and act) cool.
