In Popular Culture
In the 2001 film Super Troopers, the protagonists of the story were patrolmen of the Vermont State Police.
In 2012, it was discovered that an inmate (or inmates) at a print shop within a Vermont state correctional facility had altered the decals being printed for use on the cruisers operated by the Vermont State Police. The original decal featured an image of a cow grazing, and the alteration involved changing one of the spots on the cow to the outline of a pig. "Pig" is a derogatory term for police officers.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“For the people in government, rather than the people who pester it, Washington is an early-rising, hard-working city. It is a popular delusion that the government wastes vast amounts of money through inefficiency and sloth. Enormous effort and elaborate planning are required to waste this much money.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“Our culture has become something that is completely and utterly in love with its parent. It’s become a notion of boredom that is bought and sold, where nothing will happen except that people will become more and more terrified of tomorrow, because the new continues to look old, and the old will always look cute.”
—Malcolm McLaren (b. 1946)
