Hello Kitty armbands use to shame behavior
Aug 8th, 2007 by Gary
A 6 August 2007 Associate Press report from Bangkok Thailand says policemen there who break the rules will be forced to wear hot pink armbands with “Hello Kitty” on them as a mark of shame. Littering, arriving late to work, parking improperly, and similar violations will earn policemen the armband for a day. They hope macho policeman will be humiliated by wearing the “girlie” symbol and never commit the offense again.
The hot pink armband has Hello Kitty sitting above two hearts.
