Cops, Muni, OccupySF: A Comedian’s Dream  


Photo by @tomprice

Last night the SFPD shuttled tons of police officers on Muni to go to OccupySF and it took forever to get there. The jokes just write themselves. From Twitter last night:

Quote of the night: “Cops are on their way, but they’re taking MUNI so they’ll be here in two hours…” @sfbreakingnews

If the cops end up riding around and waiting on Muni buses all night, they should clearly be awarded honorary 99% status. – @dolftown

Poor SFPD got on a bus in Potrero Hill bound for the Ferry Building, and ended up on Treasure Island 2 hrs later. Typical MUNI. – @mikedamm

Hey, look, the cops are taking MUNI. Relax, protesters, you’ve got all night. – @malderor

Word is cops are loaded on 5 Muni buses to come arrest #occupysf. Because it’s Muni, we know the cops will arrive late and sticky. – @natogreen

OH: “The police forgot one thing: MUNI is *never* on time!” – @sfslim

Oh, you witty Twitter folks! Tweet your gems (occupy or otherwise, but always Muni) our way, please.

    I wonder if this time around that Muni gets to charge SFPD for once.

    I’ve got no jokes for this one. Too many to pick from. Well, maybe bloated budgets and bloated cops would be a place to start.

    My two least favorite city agencies together at last! SFPD and MUNI. A match made in hell! They deserve each other.
