Your Tax Dollars Hard at NSFW

The tamest of several pictures taken at Grab-n-Go Espresso (the rest, all NSFW, are after the jump).



Police officers in Everett, Washington decided that the best way to spend their time—and spend taxpayers' dough—was cracking down on the perverted, nasty, please-don't-make-them-see-it phenomenon of mostly naked women serving drive-through coffee. It was a tough assignment, but they prevailed. To prove that the women at Grab-n-Go Espresso were straddling the sill of the to-go window while wearing panties without crotches, licking whipped cream off of one another, and otherwise exposing their nether-parts to men, officers—naturally—had to take pictures. Officials have charged the women, who are scheduled for a hearing January 11, with prostitution.

Reluctantly, officers released those photos yesterday, pursuant to a public records request by the Everett Herald, but the staff at the Everett Herald had the good taste not to run those pictures. Fortunately, we don't have that good taste here at The Stranger. And while we don't really want nether-bits whipping around our open coffee cups (maybe just a health-code violation is in order), we think it's a poor use of law-enforcement resources to repeatedly send officers day-in, day-out to photograph women's nether-bits, just to charge them with misdemeanors. At that point, a cop is a pornographer, right? So we're posting them here, on Slog, your reaching-for-the-gutter hometown blog, because if you're paying for pornographers, then you're paying to see the pornography.

After the jump, you can see the TOTALLY NSFW PICTURES OF COFFEE VAGINAS.

PS — No, really, after the jump, it's all vagina all the time.

PPS — And, may the record show, the women weren't exactly trying to hide their woman junk: One photo actually shows a man in the background taking a picture of one woman licking another woman, so they knew customers could post these pictures on the internet. But we've blacked out parts of the women's faces to obscure their identities.

PPPS — As a homosexual, I'd like to say: You've been warned.

PPPPS — And if you click comments, it's probably a vagina-fest in there.

What is that there in her underwear area? We think it's whipped cream... maybe.
