I will admit it was 4am at the time i wrote that but you have to remember, people that have the same mental view as Krem are more than willing to find any threat, racial or bigoted meanings/tones in anything to make it sound worse than it ever could be, even if it has none.
I certainly didn't forget, but on the subject of interacting with these sorts of people, I feel its important to poke holes in their echo chambers as a challenge to their views. To me, their perspectives of reality are so warped and doctored to their own brains that trying to reason with them is a minefield of hopelessness, so all you can do to make a difference is present counterpoint to remind other people not to lose themselves to their own emotions in a similar way.
Hey, isn't the point of the furry fandom as a whole to indulge in fantasies that aren't necessarily "realistic" by common standards? If we're willing to give a pass to art with non-mammal breasts, cervical penetration, and the entire concept of vore, then surely we can allow the same for art of a supposedly non-corrupt police system, right?
(also the flag on the uniform implies that the character serves the Gay Police Department and I find that at least a bit entertaining)

Sadly many people missed that last sentence. I saw someone try to harassed an artist during ACAB thing on Twitter JUST because the artist has an OC who is a cop...

You already know the rules, whatever you post on Twitter, it'll most likely offend someone. It's always winter over there because people are such snowflakes.

Anyway, all jokes aside, I think it's pretty reasonable to say that, as the downvotes demonstrate, this piece is extremely tone deaf given recent events, as well as certain, less-recent events, and that's assuming it wasn't specifically made to start fights in the first place.

Memberlets not wish ill fates on someone that may see thru a narrow lens. Instead look to widen their view.

MemberCorrupt cops are one thing, all cops however is a huge difference. Don't get mad at all cops, get mad at the ones who deserve to be mad at.

MemberYou won’t be saying that if you got robbed, you’re the type of person that talks on both sides of their mouth.

This isn't about snowflakes and never was.
While others talk of bad apples, be wary of the roots
For no healthy tree naturally bears such strange fruits.

MemberReflexive down-voting of anything related to law enforcement is hoary and boring. The art is nice and deserves an up-vote.
