I appreciate the sentiment, but it’s semantics. I’d argue that Brownshirts are “cop adjacent”, in that they’re illegitimately empowered by the state and courts, and behave like the most unhinged factions of law enforcement with no fear of censure from either. Local police and sheriff’s offices have been regularly observed directly collaborating with, or at least ignoring (giving a free pass) the activities of ICE. Beyond that, the rubes that I’m talking about don’t see that difference, and don’t see them as illegitimate.

They’re not, the 2nd Amendment rubes love the cops.

You mean the gag from From?

I’ve never had the misfortune of dealing with it IRL myself, but the stories from cops who’ve had to retrieve bloated ‘floaters’ from shorelines or bodies of water are pretty daunting - describing ‘the deceased’ as sometimes coming apart in their hands like an overcooked pot roast (“fall off the bone ribs, $9.99 this Thursday at Al’s Cookhouse!”).
