Police absolutely have discretionary powers; it would be logically incompatible for them to not have such powers. They have a chain of command, and at each level decide where to focus their efforts (guided by existing laws, to be sure). Patrol routes are chosen, dispatchers must (effectively) triage calls, and officers make decisions like whether to assess a warning or a citation. |
