Our very own Seattle Police Department was recently featured on the Colbert Report in a segment they deem “rife with errors.” So they reached out to Colbert and crew in an open letter to correct the record on a few points:
You also claimed our department has not done enough to keep “medical-grade dispensary dank away from kids,” and has failed to address the serious side effects of marijuana, such as short-term memory loss.
We simply cannot remember a time we were more incensed by such a blatant mischaracterization of our department. We continue to investigate the sale of marijuana to minors, and we certainly do not encourage the use of silly branding like “Bubba Kush” and “Alien Dog.” If it were up to us, pot brands would have names like “Remember to Call Your Mother” and “You Don’t Want to Grow Up to Be a Drummer, Do You?”
My bet is that “Officer” Jonah had something to do with this.
