Cops in deep red counties consider cultural traditionalists to be the enemy and there people here boasting how secession will sweep the woke regime away. The cops are being brainwashed that we are the enemy.
In NC, the Sherriff’s are generally local men and women. They tend to be a lot more conservative.
The local police, and state cops, not so much. This is especially true around Raleigh/Durham and Charlotte. Lots of northern transplants, though my experience so far is those transplants are here to get away from looney leftwing government.
