The Thin Blue Line was never real. That was agitprop nonsense to make us think we need them and them think we’re less than them and need them. “Worship us, for we are your Thin Blue Line”, and then you worshiped police, and now you’re wonder how you landed in a police state.
I have some experience with the Thin Blue Line, its best and its worst.
I can keep a level head on the subject,
I value what we used to have and wish we had it now.
I’ve never ONCE heard of a cop stopping a crime before it happens.
Cops are ALWAYS there AFTER the crime has happened.
99% of the crimes that they stop in progress are traffic stops.
So other than straightening out a traffic violation or accident is??????
