Holiday movies and "The Law"

Ever noticed how every good holiday movie has the cops in it?

What's up with that??

M and I were discussing this very important topic this past weekend. Just try to come up with a good holiday movie that doesn't have 1 cop in it.

Christmas Vacation - The SWAT team comes to the house
A Christmas Story - The cops come to unstick the kid's tongue
Die Hard - Need I say more?
Elf - Buddy ends up in the clink.
The Santa Clause - Santa ends up in the clink.
Miracle on 34th Street - Santa goes to court
Wonderful Life - The cop forgets his name
Home Alone (1,2, & 3)- The cops bust the thieves
Trapped in Paradise - They run from the cops during the whole movie

Well, anyway. Something to ponder during your next holiday run through the neighborhood.
