Holy shit! I just replied to a thread about this same exact thing on 4Chan.

I guess this goes to show that once again, we Calis shoot first and ask questions later. Oh wait, we can't because of gun laws we made in the same vein.
By that vein, I'm surprised that this didn't show up in Texas or Colorado. We have a make my day law here. We WILL shoot first.

A public safety information bulletin issued by the San Luis Obispo County Police indicates that they're somewhat aware that Pedobear is a meme, but they still seem to be taking it pretty seriously. They say that Pedobear's "cute face and non-threatening appearance negate the truth of his sinister, much darker side."
San Luis Obispo County? What the hell? Did the county turn stupid when I left?

This kind of takes me back to the 80's, reading some of the warning flyers prepared for police departments by Pat Pulling regarding Dungeons and Dragons. Full of misinformation with just enough truth to seem real if you don't know the subculture. It saddens me to know that the police are just a clueless now as they were then.

If they take this seriously, what's next? Wait, I know:
[h4]POLICE BELIEVE "SHOOP DA WHOOP" AS A SYMBOL OF LASER ARSONISTS. [/h4]
"We agree to some extent that it's a meme, but incinerating people with lasers is no laughing matter. I know this guy, who heard about this one guy, who dated this chick, who married this guy that was killed with a laser. Do you think he's laughing at this sick ersatz face that symbolizes the population of sickos who burn people with lasers? I don't think so."
Oh damn, lasers... we are definitely going to be having difficulties with the popo now. First rampant pedobears and now people running around, shooting massive lasers from their mouths? That's just sick!

4Chan has gotten to the police... ABANDON HOPE!!

This is dumb. Its a stupid internet joke and the police are taking it too seriously. I'll admit that associating with pedobear may make you a weird creep but its only 1 indicator. Green skin and living under a bridge is another.

Successful troll is successful!

The idea that pedophiles would use something so asinine to "communicate" is so absurd that what, I don't even?

Let me see if I understand this correctly... The San Luis Obispo County Police believe that the Pedobear meme and image is really a special code that secret, potential sex-offenders and pedophiles use to identify themselves to other underground sex-fiends. And, they believe that he is used in this manner due to the fact that he is a picture of "innocence"?

I seriously have no idea what to say about this. I'm just without words.

Moments like this make me proud to be a Californian. Funniest state in the Union.

Now excuse me while I hang some Pedobear dolls all over my Dodge and make a field trip to San Luis Obispo with my college friends.

Dear Californian police officers:
//Troll vid
that is all

This nearly killed me. This thread just made sure that i cannot have a bad day...

EDIT

OT: This is just sad. I guess i can understand why an "outsider" would think that Pedobear is for real, but come on...

This isn't the first time a group of Californians have taken something from 4chan as a serious threat. Remember the piece from the LA news station about Anonymous the "hackers on steroids"?

Good call. You're better off not knowing what it is. I wish you could see the shit-eating grin on my face as I contemplate telling you; but if I did, the admins would probably tell me to scat.

My friends brother has a pedo-bear sticker on his car. Is he paedophile?!!?


*points accusing finger* PAEDOPHILE! ^^^

[sub]Ignoring the fact he also apparently as a picture of a naked woman on his engine. [/sub]

Only a paranoid pedo-witch hunter would think that pedobear was some sort of "badge" for paedophiles. Pedobear is just a joke which emerged out of all the fear and over-publicised hype about paedophiles on the internet.

This is just a matter of either:

A) The older generations misunderstanding the new, internet based, generation.
B) Mainstream culture mis-understanding a sub-culture.
