I hear it all the time, that the police do nothing or carter to the criminal and not the victim. In all honesty taking the bad guy to jail and helping the public is why we do the job. We do not do it for the pay, we don't do it for all the smart comments we are forced to hear, and we sure don't do it beacuse we can get shot at.
It is not the police that need to be blamed for "doing nothing" or "catering to the criminal." Police have to obey the law. The criminals do too, but they don't care. If a Police Officer is doing nothing, it is because the Law prevents us from doing it. If a Police Officer appears to be catering to the criminal, it's because the Deffense Lawyers and Law Makers have put in place Laws that tie the Officers hands.
There are some lazy Officers who just want a paycheck, but don't profile us and toss us all into one group.
If you don't like the way Officers do their job, go vote. Get the Laws changed. Place the blame where it belongs.
