Thin blue line 

UK useage.

The police in an area notorius for it's highcrime rate eg Whitechapel in East London, The Barton Hill area of Bristol, Bootle in Liverpool, the cornish town of Bude etc.

So called because said police see themselves as the only thing preventing an out break of anarchy
With 19 muggings, 34 assaults, 4 street fights, 7 car jackings, a rape, a murder and only 6 police the thin blue line is being streached tonight.

Thin Blue Line 

Thin Blue Line is the symbol pedophiles use to identify each other. Usually worn by racist police and their supporters.
The Thin Blue Line symbol, I would argue, is positive from the Canadian policing perspective and certainly a Calgary policing perspective - Calgary Police Chief Mark Neufeld - 2021

Thin Blue Liner 

The Law Enforcement equivalent of Black Lives Matter, aka Blue Lives Matter.

A person that is irrationally compelled to defend all law enforcement officers from accusations of criminal activity, regardless of the evidence presented or the facts.

This type of person often owns Blue Lives Matter merchandise and sees law enforcement as "super heroes".
"Be careful not to mention that pedophile cop news story around Steve. He's a Thin Blue Liner, and I will never hear the end of it."

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
