In law enforcement, appearance is everything. When you wear a uniform, when you have a badge, when you carry a gun, people pay attention.
Police know this and often exploit it to great advantage. Take a few weeks ago, when a dozen RCMP vehicles, including a huge white van emblazoned with the RCMP coat of arms, pulled up at the downtown Toronto headquarters of the Bank of Nova Scotia. Dozens of officers, some wearing black overcoats with stark white RCMP lettering, entered the building armed with a search warrant.
