I've rewritten this post several times now but it always finds new ways to burst out of me. Hopefully it goes some way to understanding how I grew up with a cop dad.
An ACAB daughter and a mug.
My dad has a mug, he got it years ago as a present from someone probably over a decade ago. It’s a mix of colours, some blue for obvious reasons. And it simply states “I’m a cop. I see guilty people.” He’s always complained about it because he hates police officers being called ‘cops’ by civilians. Nothing bothers him about the sentiment however.
