For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for January 16, 2023

Po Poor form

a job well done by the police

This has been an ongoing situation ever since cars were invented. Or maybe buggies. Or maybe oxcarts.

Just like the episode from 1994/01/11, but this time in living color!

One less baby in the world….

Or a dangerously potent situation.

Yup, policemen. You did a fabulous job. Nothing more effective than the cop doing car checks to douse the couple with cold water of reality.

Where were the police in January of 1972 when my brother and his girlfriend went all the way and my niece was conceived? What if this hadn’t happened? What a change in my brother’s life.

Because of the pregnancy he dropped out of school. They were married in April. He had trouble finding a job and ended up joining the army. My niece was born in October. He may have been sent to Vietnam but Nixon ended the war while my brother was in basic training. He did well in the service and eventually became a pharmacist. My niece has turned 50 and is married with 4 children. So what started bad turned good.

But how much differently would his life have turned out if the police had interrupted them?

Wow, Mike is sure on a parking on Lover’s Lane with his girl, trip. He was making out on Saturday night with the police noticing his car. Then Mike went home on Sunday to play snowball with his little sister. But Sunday night didn’t come soon enough because Mike is hungrily back parked in Lover’s Lane, and now the police think it is enough to roust them!

What, the cops didn’t say “We’re very sorry about this“? They are in Canada, after all…

It looks like the Canadian police did a good service and had fun performing it (for them anyway). Think of the trouble Rhetta and Michael would’ve been in if these guys didn’t intervene.

Everything happens for a reason.

Unfortunately, the police here would ask them to carry on and then watched.

If the police asked about firearms, Michael should reply “Yes, and it is a right for civilians to own them!”

Dangerous for who?

Ideally, the cops should have separated them, and then asked her if she wanted/needed any help to get away

Or we can see the wedding, where Rhetta shows up to the altar pregnant. And now the music:

Here comes Michael

With a shotgun to his head

Either his signature or his brains

Will be on the marriage license

There is a reason for everything.

Ahhh… youth and raging hormones. It always finds a way.

Very funny,fellas.Don’t you have any actual work to do?

I had a similar experience. Let’s just say I am glad my girlfriend didn’t have her ID.

Just like when Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted making out and having his hands all over an attractive 16-year girl at the movie house.

The film playing was M3GAN.

CAR 69, CONSIDER YOURSELF SUSPENDED FOR HARASSMENT!

Good work in preventing an unplanned pregnancy. The already overburdened Canadian taxpayer cannot afford to paying for welfare to feed yet another mouth.

I was on a walk in my neighborhood that had several empty fields surrounded by homes. I happened to walk by a car on a road with no homes on it where I saw to teens making out, the guy on top of the girl in the back seat. It wasn’t even dark/night time! I knocked on their window loudly and kept on walking. Next thing I knew I heard the car’s engine rev to life and they sped away.

Sexual contact before marriage could definitely create a potentially dangerous situation.

LOL this is me and the ex. Yes it could have been a dangerous situation (sooner than it actually happened LOL )

I see that the idiot who insisted they were engaged in activity that can’t be shown is silent now that it has been shown they were just making out. Fully clothed. Hearts floating outside doesn’t mean anything more than the feelings of attraction.

Well done…..

I worked as a Ranger with the Park Service from late 70 to early 78. I came across many couples in out of the way places making “whoopee”. Both day and night, if the mood was right.

Good job; unwanted pregnancy is always a potentially dangerous situation…

C@c% Blocking!!

I worked my way through college on the GI Bill and straight night shifts on the city police department. We called it “birth control patrol”.

Do those officers even know something called “make out places” ??
