      Yep, it’s never been about cops. It’s always been about racism.

      I used to love back in the day when thin blue line stickers were just a “please don’t give me a fucking ticket” stickers.

        Those stickers were never about that.

        Sure, there were police association stickers, you could get them ostensibly by donating to and supporting supposedly underpaid cops. But the blue line US flag was designed in 2014 to oppose protesters and for white supremacists to self identify.

        Even the term “thin blue line” has changed meaning since the 70s when it began to stand for cops keeping quiet to protect each other. There’s a documentary from the 80s about it.

      We have a car dealership here who flys blue lives matter flags and he brings it up in every commercial.

      Yet he rich white guy married to a black woman. I always wonder why she puts up with it?
