> the world is better if everyone can have a bit of fun, even police

Police have plenty of ways to have fun that aren't Fourth Amendment violations.

If you wanna give out free ice cream cones, station a cruiser with a sign saying so. People can come to you just fine, without the "what the fuck, why am I getting pulled over?!" worries. The banana guy at least has an inkling of why there are flashing police lights in his rearview, but that doesn't make it OK.
