While various guards and cops are shown to be incompetent or corrupt in a negative light, the callous behaviour of the US Troopers, including aiming a gun at a hysterical Black woman, is shown in a positive light - they are meant to be fun and heroic.

Kinda. The whole film is ableist but it’s not as bad as you’d expect from the concept of a ‘one-armed murderer’
