Le SPVM Recherche Des Victimes Potentielles. . . Un Tweet Envoyé Au Service de Police de la Ville de Montréal

On February 27, 2012, the SPVM aka Service de Police de la Ville de Montréal posted a Tweet about recent thefts in Montreal old people's homes to their @SPVM Twitter account -

Vols dans des résidences de personnes âgées : le SPVM recherche des victimes potentielles

Needless to say the second part of that @SPVM Tweet, which when translated into English says -

"The SPVM is looking for potential victims"

can be interpreted in more ways than one. . .

In light of the apparent proclivity of SPVM police officers to gun down homeless men and other people in psychological distress I could not restrain myself from responding to that poorly worded @SPVM Tweet with the following play on words aka jeu de mots -

@SPVM Des personnes sans-abri et d'autres individus dans la #détresse #psychologique : le #SPVM recherche des #victimes potentielles. . .

Here is a screen shot of my Tweet responding to that @SPVM Tweet -



I am also embedding that Tweet below -

It seems that the SPVM aka Service de Police de la Ville de Montréal were at a loss for words as to how to respond to my waggish play on words that none-the-less sent them a deadly serious message about their highly questionable habit of shooting first and not bothering to ask questions later. . .
