To Protect and Serve (Doughnuts, That is)

By Alex in Food & Drink on Jul 7, 2009 at 1:24 pm

When a local bakery got in economic trouble, the brave officers of the Michigan police department swooped in to protect it: they bought their favorite doughnut shop and re-named it Cops & Doughnuts!

"To Protect and Serve" has taken on a new meaning for the Clare Police Department.

When officers heard that the Clare City Bakery was closing its doors, they protected the business from certain demise.

Now, they’re serving up doughnuts. [...]

In addition to doughnuts, cookies, muffins, brownies, bread, fruit turnovers and other baked goods, the bakery sells mugs and T-shirts bearing the "Cops & Doughtnuts, 100 Percent Cop-Owned" logo on the backs, and "You Have the Right to Remain Glazed," and "Handcuffs and Cream Puffs" on the fronts.

    Sounds like a good plot for an oddball comedy.

    They should have bought a shooting range, or a gym, but nooooooo, lets keep the donut shop afloat. American cops are sooooo next to useless it’s funny in a pathetic way (until of course you actually need someone to stop or solve a crime).
