I'm surprised the photo wasn't taken in a Tim Horton's............

Now, before anyone gets upset let me be clear that I have the utmost respect for the fine officers who keep us safe. Friends with a few in fact. Coached baseball with one. He loved his donuts and never hid the fact from anyone. Course, he was 6'2" and about 250lbs so he didn't hear the donut gag except from me and a few others.:D

First, I read your first line as a joke, no offence taken. However, I don't think our police are allowed to sit in a coffee shop, or any restaurant for that matter. Other than occasionally when they are specifically there for pr. There are two reason. 1) They do not want to be seen like the unprofessional slobs often portrayed on tv. 2) It's a fine line to being paid protection, or even being perceived as such.

It's a great pic, but I question everyone having their back to door with that many police officers in one place. I'm assuming maybe someone was outside possibly watching the entrance I'm thinking? Not trying to spoil the pic but just dangerous tactically speaking.

May not have been obvious, but I bet there were.

You also can't see the front of the room. How do you know there is not someone at the front facing the back. Of course, if he/she/they are also meditating their eyes would be closed.....

Don't know what the incident you are referring to is,but is it unrelated to this photo?And if so,why the slam,this is a pretty innocuous photo,no reason to interject negativity there.. :dispirited:
mal is normally pretty good about being positive - maybe he was just having a weak moment?
