after St. Louis police unions instructed officers to publicly display The Punisher's insignia (the mark of a lawless, fascist murderer) the comic book community was quick to point out the stupidity, and the frankly horrifying message sent by supposed peace officers endorsing a maniac. So it's a good thing The Punisher personally confirms he hates cops who see him as a friend… making every cop who "wears his mark" or calls themselves a "fan" look like shameful fool in the process.

Depends which comics. People say it's ironic cops use the Punisher skull, they say the character hates cops. These people never read Punisher: MAX. It's not ironic, it's right on brand. Plus people that read it in like 2008 are sometimes 30 year old cops now.

Oh, thank you for this, I was waiting for someone who knew anything about the comics to chime in. I'm going to check that out immediately.
