IDK, In my town that is what they are, they come when called, they are respectful, they live in the town they service.

I only see problems with police [generally speaking] in two scenarios.

1) Very large cities like NYC where police don't [cannot afford] to live in the area they work in.

2) Very small citie where the mayor, judge and sherrif are all related.

That sounds great for you, but the point is: what if they were not inclined to do those things?

What if they didn’t come when called? What if they weren’t respectful? What if they weren’t a part of your community?

What recourse do you have against cops?

It's great for me because I choose where I live. If they don't come I have a gun.
