You'd never see the Shriners pulling this crap.

In all seriousness, I can only hope that Egypt makes necessary reforms.

I thought, maybe, they were the Cincinnati Sex Police Squad celebrating yet another roundup of local talent.

In 1979, then I bet the current force cannot do the same thing now.
It is very cool!
