There is one flag. Everything else is a disrespectful bastardization.

And the only reason to wear a black and white version is night time infrared identification in the military.

Similarly, seeing the “charging” flag on some police uniforms has been uhhh… interesting. That flag was for troops in combat. Because there’s a military tradition of moving the flag forward in battle. If the police are in battle then we’ve already lost.

I think that’s orange?

Again, its all pretty stupid imo. EMTs, FFs, police, whatever, already have iconography.

The “thin” whatever flags are all bullshit. It all comes back to an 80s documentary about a cop being killed, I think it was Dallas in the 70s. The flag crap all stems from that, which btw found evidence the person convicted of the murder to be innocent (his conviction was overturned after the movie was released). The name was a bit of irony about how cops perceive themselves, and how its different from reality.

Not that you’ll find anyone with one of those flags who has any idea what the origins are of course.

Edit: This is the man who was convicted

This is the movie
