Although Irvine police said they won’t use the Cybertruck as a patrol car, the police department didn’t rule out other uses should the need arise.
A police department in Southern California says it has the country’s first Tesla Cybertruck for police use, but the unusual vehicle won’t see much action.
The Irvine Police Department unveiled the purchase Tuesday in a splashy video on social media, including Facebook and X. The price tag: $153,175.03, including the installation of emergency equipment.
The police department said its Cybertruck would have a limited role: jazzing up anti-drug events at schools through the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) program.
Maybe just… Defunding the police just a liiiiitle bit wouldn’t be so bad…
Im joking btw dont hurt me or argue at me ;-;
You know you’re on Lemmy, right?
Hahah, people don’t see it right away. Here you’ll get trashed for not saying it with your chest. Honestly, I’m happier than a pig in a donut shop
We can recognize that lowering their funding won’t get rid of their unnecessary expenses
Because this viewpoint exists I died to crime.
Thanks a lot
yur welcome :3
Wait but thats illegal
Huh. I came specifically to say “Defund. Them.”
They do need to defund them if they are paying for this shit.
HONESTLY… not a bad idea ffs. Its like taking away the cookie jar when a kid gets too greedy. “You’ll get the money back when you stop buying useless shit with it”
Police also shouldn’t be out for 5150s but here we are. At least suicide by cop is easy
