NP Rank:
Watch out for the Jedi police
The police force is strong in Glasgow, becuase 8 of their officers follow Jedi as their religion.
The details were obtained in a Freedom of Information request by Jane's Police Review. Strathclyde was the only force in the UK to admit it had Jedi officers. In the Star Wars films, Jedi Knights such as Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda use the Force to battle the evil Darth Vader, who has strayed to the dark side. Jane's Police Review editor Chris Herbert, who requested the information, said: "The Force appears to be strong in Strathclyde Police with their Jedi police officers and staff.Strathclyde Police said the officers and two of its civilian staff claimed to follow the faith, which features in the Star Wars movies.

Depending on the Force and what constitutes evil may be a good thing. It cannot be any worse than our U.S. cops who are mostly interested in power and self-interest with no interest in non cops unless they will either get money (fines) or positive publicity from them.

Not got a clue, I am guessing they were just fooling around.
