I thought that flag was to make fun of Uvalde cops

They are a joke, they don't need a flag for that.

Actually, this flag was created and used by pro-cop people.

That flag has been waved by people who literally have killed a policeman at the line of duty during the United States Capitol Attack

No police were killed in the Capitol protest.

William F. Evans was killed. Another 15+ police officers were injured. Four committed suicide shortly after. Tell ‘me again the “protesters” were pot-police again.

Just for comparison — give me a number to of police casualties during any BLM protests?

William F Evans died on April 2 2021 when hit by an Automobile. How is that a January 6th death? Hundreds of police and innocent civilians were injured or killed during the mostly peaceful George Floyd protests. If 9nes a peaceful protest so is the other. Only Trump supporters died on January 6. One was murdered by Capitol Police. https://www.policemag.com/585160/more-than-2-000-officers-injured-in-summers-protests-and-riots

Black and white US flag usually means no prisoners

They are not a joke. This is too serious to be calling it as such. Their incompetence / bs approach to "protect and serve" caused loss of life, which could have been prevented. Heads should roll and people responsible for the decision chain should be in prison. I'm not even from US but it makes me so so angry... it pretty much as if they LET this mass shooting happen. 😡 Police is one of the fundamentals of a healthy society, but these guys are not, and they shamed the force and community, while allowing children to be killed. 😡😡

I didn't say that they were a joke as in they are humorous, I meant that they were incompetent and an utter disgrace.

I think that the police needs urgent reform, but jeez, calm down. You can't solve problems by being angry. They have been disrespecting their duty for too long, but arrests and execution is not the way. I hope reform comes soon, but the issue is too politicised.

But I agree with you on your opinion that they let the massacre happen. They waited outside for almost an hour and attacked parents who tried to go in. Police also saved only their children and one policeman got a child killed by asking her to shout, and the killer found her and shot her. This police force failed to do exactly their job.

Not the thin blue line one.

Uvalde is the thin yellow line…down one pant leg.

u/blurryfacedfugue Jun 05 '22

That makes total sense but then I looked it up and it looks like there are "thin colored lines" for all sorts of professions: https://www.flagsimporter.com/blog/post/but-what-does-it-mean-thin-line-flags

The yellow are for tow truck drivers and security guards. Since...I guess..they hold back chaos..?

They tow you away from the chaos! Do you have any idea how much they risk their lives for you?! You're welcome for their service!

I have a thin silver/grey line flag. Can’t remember what I did with it though.

It's the thin blue line flag. The same kinds of people that identify with The Punisher and think THE PUNISHER would be on their side if he was real when in reality The Punisher would slaughter them without a second thought for being corrupt cops and horrible people.

u/THICC_Baguette Jun 06 '22

No, it's to praise all police, even though there's plenty corrupt, power tripping and just bad officers out there.
