Good thing they squashed the people's fears in time. What I can't understand is why the Allies would drop zucchini on the Germans at all? Califlower I can understand. That stuff will kill you.  :buck2:

the cops do it officially in police reports 

https://www.presseportal.de/blaulicht/pm/110972/3778164

and the newspapers like to print it for a chuckle 
(...and to distract from the real problems you get and can read in all the other police reports in Germany when someone opened the border and you suddenly have 1.6 million (source: https://www.destatis.de/DE/PresseService/Presse/Pressemitteilungen/2017/11/PD17_387_12521.html) so called 'shelter seekers' milling around)

Right - "Everyone romaine calm. We are slaw and order. Please come in peas."

Well, that last part is open to interpretation. ;)
