The police need better purpose. Despite slogans, they don’t exist to “protect and serve” the communities they patrol, and they never have. They exist to protect rich property owners from the masses. One of the best ways of doing that is by making the masses afraid of the ownership class’s pitbulls.
Doesn’t help that the supreme court protects both their ignorance of the law and specifically stated multiple times they are not bound by any duty that even closely resembles “protect and serve”.
