    Someone should make a book like this, and it explores what happens when the good cop tries to report a violation to internal affairs

    So much kid's media is so vague about what cops do. It's always something like "I'm here when you need help" like I saw in a recent Sesame Street episode that was about vehicles.

    I can't imagine it takes long for kids to see through it. Especially with stuff like Uvalde happening

      My kids were given a fisher price police car and it pushes the copaganda so hard.

      None of our firetrucks make a sound because their justification is self evident

    40% of cops are domestic abusers.

    written by someone married to a cop sublimating their dream of not having a terrible home life by lying to the next generation about it

      What would it take to become a leftist children's book writer?

      As long as the target audience is under 5 and the narrative uses the 500 most basic words in the language, you can sneak in a lot of lefty narratives without the publisher noticing. Reactionary parents on the other hand will not miss the opportunity to hold a book burning.

    I love how they didn't draw a cutesy cartoon cop cat. Nope. Gotta go with a realistic one complete with ram bar and the cage in the back.

    Edit: lmao I wrote cop cat instead of cop car
