You really can’t make this stuff up.

A Spanish woman has been fined by police in Spain for walking through the streets of Madrid carrying a bag that declared “All Cats Are Beautiful”.

(snip)

Despite the fact that the bag carried an image of a cat and the phrase “All Cats Are Beautiful” beneath the letters ACAB, the police insisted it was an acronym for the punk phrase “All Cops Are Bastards”.

What is truly sad is that you don’t have to.

(The report goes on to point out that, in the 1970s–that is almost a half-century ago)–some British punk band that I never heard of had some song that I never heard called “ACAB” for “All Cops Are Bastards.” It would seem that these cops are trying to bring the music to life.)
