        Paul Blart is a fictional mall cop. Derek Chauvin was an actual cop who is now a convicted murderer for suffocating an unarmed and nonviolent black man on the streets of Minneapolis.

        Paul Blart is a fictional mall security guard. Kinda incompetent, excessive sense of self importance, but a good guy.

        Derek Chauvin was a real cop who murdered George Floyd by kneeling on him, cutting off his airway until he died.

          ICE is Paul Blart incompetence with Chauvin lethality. As brutal as US cops are, they still require some sort of qualification; smart enough to know how to escalate but avoid making it their fault, mind fuck interrogations, telling people their rights then weaseling their way around it without quite “violating” it, hierarchy and teamwork. ICE is the rabble of those who couldn’t even meet that standard and the ones who did but were so unhinged they became a liability.
