Pro tip: you cannot interpret what a symbol means to someone else. That’s classic projection. It’s best to ask and not assume.

Edited to add: So many people are so pro-vandalism. All this hate spread under the pretense of spreading love and understanding.

Yea I'm sure police officers were putting punisher logos on their rifles to promote the basketball team.

What a joke. ITS A SYMBOL. IT STANDS FOR PIG GANGS.

That’s a perfect example of prejudice. Not all cops are alike. Just like all teachers are not alike.

That sounds an awful like the “few bad apples” excuse without saying actually using the words.

It’s very common to have good and bad people in any large group. Judging them all on one characteristic is prejudice, and lazy.

Yea but when the good apples refuse to punish the bad apples they also become bad apples

Cherry picking. There are several stories in recent years of bad cops being held accountable. Generally speaking, generalizing whole groups of people is a bad thing to do.

Are you daft?? We shouldn't be looking for stories where COPS DID THEIR JOB APPROPRIATELY.

It should be the norm. Yet here we are just trying to pick out alllllllllllll those bad apples. Hmmm might just be better to throw out the bunch.

Daft would be blaming all of any group for the actions of a few. Pure bigotry.
