You’re a police officer charged with moving three prisoners from a police van into a holding cell: A woman shoplifter, a straight rapist, and a gay rapist. You can only safely move one prisoner at a time between the van and the holding cell. If you leave the straight rapist and the woman together unsupervised he’ll rape her; and if you leave the gay rapist and the straight rapist together unsupervised, he’ll rape him (The gay rapist has no interest in women). How can you move the three prisoners to the holding cell without any of them getting raped? ---

How can you move the three prisoners to the holding cell without any of them getting raped? You take the SR to the cell and leave him. You go back to the van alone and take the WS to the cell and leave her. You take the SR back to the van, leave him there and take the GR to the cell and leave him. You go back alone and take the SR to the cell. ---

You just beat the rapists senseless and move the prisoners in whatever order is easiest. From what we have been hearing on the news about cops, that seems like the most likely approach. ---

Somebody posted [this picture](http://rainbowgram.net/2014/12/14/cuz-sometimes-you-just-need-a-rainbow-unicorn-kitten-with-butterfly-wings-happy-sunday/) and it made me very angry. I mean, I want my rainbow butterfly unicorn kittens to be at least believable. Does anyone else see the mistake I see? ---

My missus dressed up as a police woman last night and giggled, “You’re being charged with being good in bed…” After two minutes she said she was dropping the charge due to lack of evidence. ---
