Cops Take Down Stormtrooper for Toy Blaster on 'Star Wars' Day

This Stormtrooper had a bad day after deciding to bring out her toy blaster.

I'm not even sure what to say here. This is too stupid.

Haha even the guy recording knows it's a joke. Those cops will be the laughing stock at the precinct, won't they?

Heroes.

Stormtrooper irony.

Idk she looked a little short for a real stormtrooper.

Oh.. yeah, I missed the date. I had just seen a longer video of it on Reddit posted today and thought it was current. I've been up more than 24 hours.. these things happen. Well, in any case it's still amusingly dumb I guess. It happens fairly often that I have to remind myself not to do any admin/moderation tasks when I'm up this long. I'm too old to have entirely sound reason on no sleep.

May the farce be with you.

Canada - 'nuff said.

Guys, context.

If they started at the beginning you would have seen she disrespected Lord Vader.

I know, I'm familiar with him.
