If someone tells you to imagine a cop, and you imagine a TV cop, that show has definitely influenced your worldview.

I love cops, they're so funny and silly and always do the right™ thing.

I literally will disgrace the national flag with my own version of it, and you know what? I'll even throw a punisher logo with a thin blue line, because you know, the punisher loved cops as much as I did.

This whole damn nation was founded on respecting the authority and licking boots.

I think the problem is that we don't encourage our children to be like George Washington.
