Sonic Adventure 2 is a perfect allegory for the police as an organization, and considering their denomination — GUN — an immortalized reminder of their brute force and willful incompetence.

From the wrongfully attempted persecution of our titular hero, to the attempted murder of a harmless turtle, and finally the actual murder of a small child, there are no punches being pulled here. GUN is vicious, uncaring, and irresponsible.

Just like the non fictional industry they represent.

Sonic knows these people cannot be reasoned with. He outruns them, defaces their property, and smashes the system whenever it stands in his way.

He's our true boy in blue.
