VIDEO: RoboCop gives the smackdown to train perverts in Japan

In what has to be the oddest most badass public service campaign ever, the Osaka Police Department has been using a man dressed as RoboCop to patrol trains and protect women from handsy men and other train riding perverts. According to Britain’s Daily Mirror, RoboCop can make arrests and also warns passengers to keep an eye on their valuables. Or as the police department’s website puts it: “RoboCop is a hammer of justice to molesters threatening women.” That’s more like it.

Sometimes real life is even better than the movie. Now, if we’d only had RoboCop to deal with the Muni Humper.
