The Laguna Beach community is divided over a new police car design featuring the American flag, which some residents complain is frightening and aggressive.
The Laguna Beach City Council decided in February to repaint the Southern California city's all-white squad cars black-and-white with the word "Police" in the colors of the American flag. But the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday that the council will reconvene Tuesday to consider reversing the decision amid complaints from residents.
A local designer told the council in a March meeting that he had witnessed the new police cars spark "a little panic" when several rolled up to a Laguna Beach hotel, causing parents with children to scatter.
"When one of them's there it works, but all of a sudden, I saw, wow, when there are three, maybe four of them together, folks thought it was a SWAT team, federal agents. So it had a very striking, strong impact, so much so that I think there might be some unintended consequences," he complained.

My country, my flag, screw em. I hope it scares them so bad they go home. You can bet it's not scaring the true citizens, and I don't mean the left wing teet sucking liberal communists.
