Thin Blue Line reskin for the American flag patches on helmets.
- Permissions and credits
Replaces the standard American flag patches on helmets with a Thin Blue Line version instead.
The American Thin Blue Line flag is a version of the American flag which represents the police specifically. The thin blue line is a term that typically refers to the concept of the police as the line which keeps society from descending into violent chaos. The ‘blue’ in ‘thin blue line’ refers to the color of the uniforms of many police departments. The thin blue line flag represents the ideals of justice and freedom, bravery and solidarity. It is a badge of honour and is worn to commemorate the fallen within the police service. The black space above the blue line represents society, order and peace, while the black below, crime, anarchy and chaos.
Mainly made it because I think the flag visually fits the helmets more than the standard colourful one, but it also has a bit more meaning for police in particular.
Due to comments, I suppose I have to mention the obvious:
For those who want to get offended about a flag which represents and shows support for police, in a police game... it might be time to re-evaluate things. And to be very clear - this flag/mod has absolutely nothing to do with race either, and no malice or bad faith is intended. If you feel the need to write a comment complaining about how terrible it is, try watching this educational video first - https://youtu.be/lSisKAIjTmQ.
