When the government turn against you.

This police police stuff is making me remember of something called lexical ambiguity. Saw it on Vsauce and it's pretty interesting.

If police police police police, who police police police? Police police police police police police.



Spoiler: Explanation
If the police police is what you might call the people who supervise, monitor, and maintain order amongst the regular police force, then who, in turn, supervises the police police? The answer: the police police police. Hyphenating the noun constructs makes this easier to follow. Therefore, "[The] police-police [, that the] police-police-police police [, themselves] police [the] police", which means that "the police-police, who are policed by the police-police-police, are themselves responsible for policing the regular police force". In these sentences, the word police is used both as a collective noun ("police force") and as a verb ("to police [someone or something]"). This clause is also a reduced relative clause, so the word that, which could appear between the second and third words of the sentence, is omitted



anyways, pretty funny clip I never tried your casino machine but I was the guy that was spitting out probabilities of winning and stuff lol
