I'm guessing the "back the blue" folks only consider someone a cop if they're in the police union. Which is also funny because they tend to vastly support candidates that want to strip union rights

They also want to defund the IRS and other federal agencies, which exist to enforce laws. Once of the biggest CSAM busts in history was spearheaded by a single IRS agent and resulted in hundreds of arrests across the globe, including a border patrol agent. It ended with taking down a huge darknet website called "welcome to video."
